Leave Me Alone (I’m Lonely) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Go away, give me a chance to miss you
Say goodbye, it'll make me wanna kiss you
I love you so much more when you're not here
Watching all the bad shows, drinking all of my beer

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I don't believe Adam and Eve
Spent every goddamn day together
If you give me some room, there will be room enough for two

[Chorus]
Tonight
Leave me alone, I'm lonely
Alone, I'm lonely
I'm tired
Leave me alone, I'm lonely
Alone, I'm lonely tonight

[Verse 2]
I don't wanna wake up with another
But I don't wanna always wake up with you either
No, you can't hop into my shower
All I ask for is one fuckin' hour

[Pre-Chorus 2]
You taste so sweet
But I can't eat the same thing every day
Cutting off the phone
Leave me the fuck alone
Tomorrow, I'll be begging you to come home
[Chorus]
Tonight
Leave me alone, I'm lonely
Alone, I'm lonely
I'm tired
Leave me alone, I'm lonely
Alone, I'm lonely tonight

[Bridge]
Go away, come back
Go away, come back
Why can't I just have it both ways?
Go away, come back
Go away, come back
I wish you knew the difference
Go away, come back

[Refrain]
Go away, give me a chance to miss you
Say goodbye, it'll make me wanna kiss you (Tonight)
Go away, give me a chance to miss you (Alone, I'm lonely, alone, I'm lonely)
Say goodbye, it'll make me wanna kiss you
Go away, give me a chance to miss you (Tonight)
Say goodbye, it'll make me wanna kiss you (Alone, I'm lonely, alone, I'm lonely)

[Chorus]
Tonight
Leave me alone, I'm lonely
Alone, I'm lonely
I'm tired
Leave me alone, I'm lonely
Alone, I'm lonely tonight
Tonight
Leave me alone, I'm lonely
Alone, I'm lonely
I'm tired
Leave me alone, I'm lonely
Alone, I'm lonely tonight
Tonight
[Outro]
Tonight
(Go away, give me a chance to miss you)
Leave me alone, I'm lonely
Alone, I'm lonely
(Say goodbye, it'll make me want to kiss you)
I'm tired
(Go away, give me a chance to miss you)
Leave me alone, I'm lonely
Alone, I'm lonely
(Say goodbye, it'll make me wanna kiss you)
Tonight
Go away, give me a chance to miss you
Say goodbye, it'll make me wanna kiss you
