I don't like to sleep alone Stay with me Don't go Talk with me for just a while So much of you to get to know Reaching out touching you Leaving all the worries behind Loving you My mouth on yours and yours on mine Marry me Let me live with you Nothing's wrong and love is right Like a man says in his song Help me make it through the night Loneliness can get you down When you get to thinking no one cares Lean on me And I'll lean on you Together we will see it through No, I don't like to sleep alone It's sad to think some folks do No I don't like to sleep alone No one does Do you? No, I don't like to sleep alone It's sad to think some folks do No I don't like to sleep alone No one does Do you?
