The song "Lonely" by Kara is a heartfelt ballad about feeling alone and waiting for someone to return. The first verse, sung by Jiyoung and Seungyeon, expresses the longing for a loved one who is not present. They are still haunted by their happy memories, and tears continue to fall as they wait. Hara and Gyuri's following verses describe the pain in their hearts and how they cannot escape the sadness that has taken over them.
The chorus speaks of the loneliness that still lingers, even after such a long time. Nicole shows the physical manifestation of this as she sounds like she is shaking. They all plead for the return of their loved one, asking them to come back and save them from feeling this way.
The bridge, sung by Seungyeon, speaks to the time that they had together and how precious it was, leading to a plea for a return of those times. The final chorus brings everything back to the present, with everyone singing in hope that they will see their loved one again.
