Lyrics

Don't want to be lonely tonight
so I guess I'd better treat you right, 'cause I
Don't want to be lonely tonight
when everyone is falling in love. No-Oh I

Don't want to take advantage of you
Wanna give you love that's true
Wanna give you something you haven't had for a long time.
So baby take it straight from me
I'll be the best that I can be
If you give me a chance to give you my love, 'cause I

Don't want to be lonely tonight
so I better hold onto you tight, Oh-Oh I
Don't want to be lonely tonight
it's time for us to fall in love. Oh I

Can't wait to see your grill
Can't wait to show you how I feel
All day I have been waiting to hold you close to my heart.
So baby take it straight from me
I'll be the best that I can be
If you give me a chance to give you my love, 'cause I

Don't want to be lonely tonight
so I guess I'd better treat you right, 'cause I
Don't want to be lonely tonight
when everyone is falling in love. No-Oh I

Don't want to be lonely tonight
so I better hold onto you tight, Oh-Oh I
Don't want to be lonely tonight
it's time for us to fall in love. No-Oh I

[Rhythm Break]

All my life, I've been waiting for you
Life is meaningless, when I'm not with you
All my life, I've been waiting for you
Can't you see I need you.

Don't want to be lonely tonight
so I guess I'd better treat you right, 'cause I
Don't want to be lonely tonight
when everyone is falling in love. No-Oh I

Don't want to be lonely tonight
so I better hold onto you tight, Oh-Oh I
Don't want to be lonely tonight
it's time for us to fall in love. No-Oh I

Oh-Oh baby, I'm in love
I need you tonight
Oh-Oh baby, I fell in love
with you at first sight.

[Repeat Adlib and Fade]
