Traveling Down a Lonely Road (Love Theme from La Strada)

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. ..
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. ..
