Shine on your light
Lead me to your home
Lower your sights
Put away your comb
Though black babies are starving
And cows fed for the carving
All I know is I'm lonely
And I need to be with someone tonight
Lift up your chin
Let me see your eyes
Words are not my yen
My tongue is often tied
Though apartheid's a greater issue
I long to hear "I miss you"
All I know is I'm lonely
And I need to be with someone tonight
'Till men stop being intimidated
By women who have made it
All I know is I'm lonely
And I need to be with someone tonight
