Lonely, you on my mind How could I let you go All that we've been through I still need you next to me I said so many things I did not mean to say And although we tried to talk The words, they got in the way Now that I realise I need you with me I've got to find a way to make you see This time, it could be forever This time, it could be so complete It's time for us to be together Now I know what you mean to me Now that I understand Through all this loneliness I need no other man So here I am, I'm still needing you As you were leaving I knew I was to blame But I'm not gonna beg you To come back and stay So make up your mind now 'Cos it's all up to you Yes, we owe it to ourselves to see this through This time, it could be forever This time, it could be so complete It's time for us to be together Now I know what you mean to me No one could hold me No one could have told me That I would be feeling this way The day's getting longer The feeling is stronger Put an end to this pain right away This time, it could be forever This time, it could be so complete It's time for us to be together Now I know what you mean to me Oh what I fool I must have been To lose the love that you were giving me This time, it could be forever This time, it could be so complete It's time for us to be together Now I know what you mean to me I'm still wanting you, needing you Missing you, feeling you in my dreams Are you still wanting me, needing me Missing me, feeling me in your dreams 'Cos the day you come back to me That's how it's gonna be, just you and me Just you and me This time, it's gonna be, it's gonna be you and me This time, I want it to be so complete This time, this time it has to be together Oh baby, it's gonna be, it's gonna be, it's gonna be......
