Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Listen to me, listen to me, listen to me, listen to me
Listen to me, listen to me, listen to me, listen
[Verse 2]
I've been talkin' to this man, he's been sayin' what I like and
He makes me smile when I'm down, so down
He says sweet things in my ear, all the things I needed to hear
But that's as far as it's gone, I promise, I promise
[Verse 3]
But I enjoy it, I love it so 'cause it seems like I'm always alone
You're at arms reach but, baby, where are you, where are you?
'Cause I got this fire, sweet and true, but I'm cold as ice around you
[Verse 4]
'Cause I'm lonely whenever you're around
'Cause I'm lonely whenever you're around
[Verse 5]
Oh, what happened to the wonderful thing we had?
It seems like you're missing in action and I'm tired, I'm tired
I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired, I don't wanna lose this good life
But I ain't scared if I'm goin' to be the only one participating in this
[Verse 6]
'Cause I'm lonely whenever you're around
'Cause I'm lonely whenever you're around
'Cause I'm lonely whenever
