Lyrics

I'm so alone tonight
My bed feels larger than when I was small
Lost in memories
Lost in all the sheets and old pillows
So alone tonight
Miss you more than I will let you know
Miss the outline of your back
Miss you breathing down my neck
They're all out to get you
Once again
They're all out to get you
Once again
Insecure, what you gonna do
Feel so small they could step on you
Called you up, answering machine
When the human touch
Is what I need
What I need
What I need
What I need
What I need
Is you
I need you
Looked in the mirror
I don't know who I am anymore
The face is familiar
But the eyes, the eyes give it all away
They're all out to get you
Once again they're all out to get you
Here they come again
Here they come again
Here they come again
Here they come again
Here they come again
Here they come again
Here they come again
Here they come again
Insecure what you gonna do
Feel so small they could step on you
Called you up, answering machine
When the human touch
Is what I need
What I need
What I need
What I need
What I need
What I need
What I need
What I need
What I need
What I need
Is you
(What I need)
Is you
(What I need)
Is you
Is you
(What I need)
Is you
Is you
(What I need)
If you let me breathe
If you let me breathe
If you let me breathe
If you let me breathe
They're all out to get you
Once again
They're all out to get you
Out to get you
Once again
