Right foot in front of the other
Boy, you've got to slow your heartbeat down
Do your best to say something sober
Courage, please don't fail me now
'Cause I've never been the kind of man
That could ever talk to a pretty thing like you
But tonight I don't give a damn
I'm at the point I've got nothing left to lose
But everybody's big on small talk too scared to play their hand
Caught up in lovers games nobody understands
Why can't we just say what we really mean to
I'm lonely
How about you
Nighttime ain't getting any younger
Moments like these don't hang around
We can keep running 'round in circles, baby
But it's gonna end up running us both straight in the ground
But everybody's big on small talk too scared to play their hand
Caught up in lovers games nobody understands
Why can't we just say what we really mean to
I'm lonely
How about you come on over and lay by my side
Forget about tomrorrow and give me tonight
'Cause leaving alone is something I just cannot do
I think we can shake lonely
How about you
How about you
How about you
How about you
