I Get Lonely

(álbum: The Velvet Rope - 1997)

I get so lonely, can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
I want no one but you
I get so lonely, can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
I want no one but

Sitting here with my tears
All alone with my fears, I'm wondering
If I have to do without you
But there's no reason why
I fell asleep late last night
Crying like a newborn child
Holding myself close
Pretending my arms are yours
I want no one but you

I get so lonely, can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
I want no one but you
I get so lonely, can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
I want no one but

I still remember to the day
In fact it was a third Monday
You came along to be the one for me
And now I'm alone
I'm sitting here by the phone
Call and say that you're okay
So that I have
The chance to beg you to stay
I want no one but you

I get so lonely, can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
I want no one but you
I get so lonely, can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
I want no one but you
I get so lonely, can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
I want no one but you
I get so lonely, can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
I want no one but

Gonna break it down, break it down, break it down
Gonna break it down, break it down, break it down
You know that I know that I get so lonely thinking of you

I get so lonely, can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
I want no one but you
I get so lonely, can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
Want no one but you
I get so lonely, can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
I want no one but you
I get so lonely, can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
Want no one but you
