Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm curious to know exactly how you are
I keep my distance but that distance is too far
It reassures me just to know that you're okay
But I don't want you to go on needing me this way
[Chorus]
And I, I don't want to know if you are lonely
Don't want to know if you are less than lonely
Don't want to know if you are lonely
Don't want to know, don't want to know
[Verse 2]
The day you left me, left me feeling oh, so bad
Still I'm not sure about all the doubts we had
From the beginning we both knew it wouldn't last
Decisions have been made, the die has been cast
[Chorus]
And I, I don't want to know if you are lonely
Don't want to know if you are less than lonely
Don't want to know if you are lonely
Don't want to know, don't want to know
Don't want to know
[Chorus]
Know, don't wanna know
Don't want to know
Don't want to know
Don't want to know
Don't want to know
Don't want to know
[Verse 3]
The phone is ringing and the clock says four a.m.
If it's your friends, well, I don't want to hear from them
Please leave your number and a message at the tone
Or you can just go on and leave me alone
[Chorus]
But I, I don't want to know if you are lonely
Don't want to know if you are less than lonely
Don't want to know if you are lonely
I don't want to know, don't want to know
[Chorus]
I don't want to know if you are lonely
Don't want to know if you are less than lonely
I don't want to know if you are lonely
I don't want to know
