Well, if we have Sinead fans here, how about a non-gender-specific song of loneliness/longing, apparently an outtake from working with Prince;
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CVA9Mn_TGl4&feature=relatedWhat would you do if I said 'I love you' ?
I dont want to make love, just to hold you.
In this lonely life of mine, I have nobody
To see me thru loveless times. I'm so lonely.
I would love someone to call me "Baby".
All I really need is somebody to love me.
Someone who would need me.
I would love to be someone's baby.
Say that you'll be like a mother to me.
This is what i ask the Lord above;
Send someone who'll see that im in such pain
To kiss my eyes and call me, "Love".
