Why am I alone?    Why am I alone,    Traveling down a lonely road?       Darling, can't you see?    I don't wanna be,    Traveling down a lonely road.       If you would open up your heart    And let my love come shining through,    You'd know how much    I wanna walk the road with you . . .       Won't you understand?    Won't you take my hand?    It's been such a lonely road . . .       < Chorus Italian lyrics >       If you would open up your heart    And let my love come shining through,    You'd know how much    I wanna walk the road with you . . .       Won't you understand?    Won't you take my hand?    It's been such a lonely road . . .       Such a lonely road . . .       Music and original Italian lyrics by Nino Rinaldi Rota    and Michele Galdieri , 1954    English lyrics by Don Raye
