Leave me alone I need time to think To walk on the beach Or stop for a drink I want solitude I don't want to share I want someone near When I want them there You know I like to eat And sleep alone I can do everything All on my own I'm a lone wolf I won't apologize But there's another voice Inside that cries (*) And nobody seems To understand That a lone wolf Can be a lonely man () I want to be alone Don't leave me I want to walk alone Stand by me Want to be on my own Please help me Why can't you understand? Why can't you understand? I don't need anyone Please love me I'll go all by myself Come with me Why don't you go away But be here Why can't you understand? Why can't you understand? I go where I want And do what I please I don't really need Any sympathy When I get on a plane To fly away Don't want anyone cryin' Come on please stay I'm a lone wolf Won't apologize But there's another voice Inside that cries
