Track: I Get So Lonely

Lyrics
I get so, I get so
I get so, I get so
I get so, I get so
I get so, I get so
I get so, I get so
I get so, I get so
I get so lonely
I get so lonely

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 y-
I get so lonely

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

Sittin' 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
Cryin' like a newborn child
Holdin' myself close
Pretendin' 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 sittin' 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
I get so lonely (I get, I get)
Can't let just anybody hold me (can't let)
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
want no one but you
I get so lonely (every time I see your face, baby)
Can't let just anybody hold me (every time I hear your name)
You are the one (I can't believe)
That lives in me, my dear (that you and me are no longer)
Want no one but y-

Gonna break it down, break it down, break it down
I, I
Gonna break it down, break it down, break it down
I, I
Gonna break it down, break it down, break it down
Gonna break it down, break it down, break it down

I, I
I, I
I, I
I, I
I get so, I get so
I get so, I get so
I get so, I get so
I get so, I get so
I get so, I get so
I get so, I get so
I get so, I get so
I get so, I get so

I get so lonely (I get lonely when I hear your name)
Can't let just anybody hold me (I get lonely when I see your face)
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
Want no one but you
I get so lonely (get lonely when I hear your name)
Can't let just anybody hold me (I get lonely when I see your face)
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
Want no one but you (I don't want no one else but you)

I, I
I, I
I, I
I, I
I, I
I, I
I, I

I get so, I get so
I get so, I get so
I get so, I get so
I get so, I get so
