Learn to be lonely (Phantom of the Opera)

Child of the wilderness,
Born into emptiness,
Learn to be lonely,
Learn to find your way in darkness.
Who will be there for you?
Comfort and care for you?
Learn to be lonely,
Learn to be your one companion.

Never dream that out in the world
There are arms to hold you.
You've always known
Your heart was on its own.

So laugh in your loneliness.
Child of the wilderness.
Learn to be lonely,
Learn how to love
Life that is lived alone.

Learn to be lonely.
Life can be lived,
Life can be loved alone.
