Lyrics:
[Chorus] 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... [Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] 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... [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] 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... [Breakdown] 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 [Chorus] 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
