Just follow the stairway 
To this lonely world of mine
You'll find me waitin' here 
In Apartment # 9

Not so very long ago 
You walked away from me
And after the all the plans we made
You decided to be free

Loneliness surrounds me 
Without your arms around me
And the sun will never shine 
In Apartment # 9

<instrumental interlude>

I keep waiting in this lonely room
Just in case you change your mind
You'll find me waitin' here
In Apartment # 9

Loneliness surrounds me
Without your arms around me
And the sun will never shine
In Apartment # 9

No the sun will never shine in Apartment # 9
