[Intro:] (x2)
I look at all the lonely people

[Hook: B.o.B.]
I look at all the lonely people
I see 'em, I see 'em, I see 'em, there they go
I look at all the lonely people
I see 'em, I see 'em, I can see 'em, there they go
I look at all the lonely people
I see 'em, I see 'em, I see 'em, there they go
I look at all the lonely people
I see 'em, I see 'em, I see 'em, there they go

Cindy Lavinsky, went to a school
Where the kids that she did meet, did not treat her friendly
She in elementary, so when she went home
It was wrong evidently, so lonely and empty
Well, Lookin' for love in a club got her drunk
Met a thug named Bud, got her pregnant with a son
Here he come; in a sub-division there's a couple
Engaged in a fuss, one of them grabs a gun
But in the street, all alone, there's a kid
Tryin' to wipe away the tears after what his Momma did
And there it is
(All the lonely people - where do they all come from?)
[Hook: B.o.B.]

Benny Lavinsky, adopted at three
A foster home's where he's livin', his pockets are empty
So when he turns 16, he just ran away
And then he moved to the city and had a daughter named Lizzy
Well, In a mansion, in a room, on a bed
There's a girl so depressed, from the drugs and the stress
All the diamonds on her dress still can not relieve stress
That she faces from the world, why these n***as offer it
Evidence she's obsessed, but what she feels she can't express
All she want is happiness, but all she know is big success
Nothin' less
(All the lonely people - where do they all come from?)

[Hook: B.o.B.]

[Interlude: B.o.B] (x2)
I know that you've been havin' a lonely day
All you gotta do, is find a way
Maybe in your dreams you can fly away
Away, away, away

[Hook: B.o.B.]
