Lyrics:
You know I know we've all shared that feeling of being lonely
We did everything in our power to try to elude that particular situation
'Cause I could remember hanging in the bars, in the clubs
Always would find the bartender sound, "Last call" for alcohol ooh
Well it's way past two o' clock, yes it is
And the bars are closed, all closed
If I come drifitng in the night again
No ain't no way this lonely man can sing to win
All of my friends have gone home to their sweethearts
Left me wishing upon a star, not to be lonely
Not to be lonely, ooh so tired of being lonely
Oh how I wish I had someone to go home to
To share this life and help me make it through
Oh how I wish I had someone to go home to
To bathe me down and do the things that lovers do
Oh how I long for the daylight
But the sunlight makes my burdens light
With the hope that I just might meet that someone
And lonely night we shall overcome
I don't wanna be lonely
You see I need more than a one night stand
Give me woman this time, you've got a real man
I'm still lonely, I'm so lonely
Won't you believe me now?
Whoa I'm still lonely, so lonely yeah
To share this life and help me make it through (all you gotta to is)
Oh how I wish I had someone to go home to (a little time and do me just one baby, do that for me)
To bathe me down and do the things that lovers do (all I need)
Oh how I wish I had someone to go home to (from you girl is just to fill me up when I'm watered down)
To share this life and help me make it through
Oh how I
