About The Song
“Two Less Lonely People in the World” is a song by British/Australian soft rock duo Air Supply, from their 1982 album Now and Forever. It was the third of three singles released from the album.
The song reached number 38 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and number 33 on Cash Box in January 1983. It also charted modestly in Australia. Written by Ken Hirsch and veteran lyricist Howard Greenfield, it provided a rare hit for Greenfield decades after his 1960s heyday, and one of the last before his death.
“Two Less Lonely People in the World” was a hit on adult contemporary radio in Canada and the United States, reaching number two in Canada, and three weeks at number four in the US.
Billboard said that “The group’s sentimental sound is so distinctive that the new single is instantly familiar.

Lyrics
I was down my dreams were wearing thin
When you’re lost where do you begin
My heart always seemed to drift from day to day
Looking for the love that never came my way
Then you smiled and i reached out to you
I could tell you were lonely too
One look then it all began for you and me
The moment that we touched i knew that there would be
Two less lonely people in the world
And it’s gonna be fine
Out of all the people in the world
I just can’t believe you’re mine
In my life where everything was wrong
Something finally went right
Now there’s two less lonely people
In the world tonight
Just to think what i might have missed
Looking back how did i exist
I dreamed, still i never thought i’d come this far
But miracles come true, i know ’cause here we are
Two less lonely people in the world
And it’s gonna be fine
Out of all the people in the world
I just can’t believe you’re mine
In my life where everything was wrong
Something finally went right
Now there’s two less lonely people
In the world tonight
Tonight i fell in love with you
And all the things i never knew
Seemed to come to me somehow
Baby, love is here and now there’s
Two less lonely people in the world
And it’s gonna be fine
Out of all the people in the world
I just can’t believe you’re mine
In my life where everything was wrong
Something finally went right
Now there’s two less lonely people
In the world tonight
