Lyrics

Ahhh... do do do... You better let me tell you Ahhh... do do do... You better let me tell you You know some time ago Our pathways parted Now you may have found bliss Yeah, but I found regret Maybe you can smile Maybe even laugh Yeah, but all the while I'm trying to forget Tears cannot express my grief Nor words my loneliness For they can only tell apart Let my heart tell you the rest I would season every Day of my life with you You better let me tell you I would show you just what It means to be true, girl You better let me tell you Cause after love Has come and gone Baby, I'm the lonely one Ooh, ooh... But why should a man be lonely (Why should a man be lonely) (Why should a man be lonely) When he had someone like you How can I make you believe That I got to have you, baby (Got to have you, baby) Yes, I got to have you, baby (Got to have you, baby) Oh, I got to have you, baby (Got to have you, baby) I would sweeten every hour Of my day with you You better let me tell you I would give you all the things A good lady would need You better let me tell you For you I'd save up all of my time Give you every dime For you, girl You better let me tell you Cause after love Has come and gone Baby, I'm the lonely one Ooh, ooh... But why should a man be lonely (Why should a man be lonely) (Why should a man be lonely) When he had someone like you How can I make you believe That I got to have you, baby (Got to have you, baby) Yes, I got to have you, baby (Got to have you, baby) Oh, I got to have you, baby (Got to have you, baby) I got to travel on Down life's highway Searching faces Some old, some new Seeking someone Whom I need the most I know there can't be two Yeah, I'm searching for someone Who's the closest thing to you Gotta go on, gotta go on I'm so lonely, I gotta go I'm so lonely, gotta go, yeah Oh, I just gotta go I said, baby Baby, baby, baby, oh I just, just, just, just got to go (I've got to go, I've got to go) I'm so lonely (hey) I gotta go (oh) I'm so lonely, gotta go, yeah (Gotta go on, yeah, yeah) Oh, I gotta go I gotta go, I just gotta go (Better let me tell you) (Better let me tell you) Gotta go on, gotta go on I'm so lonely, I gotta go I'm so lonely, yeah I've just gotta go Hey, hey, got to, got to...
