Puttin' on my coat, wanna break out from these walls Catch a bus and take a walk downtown Maybe run into a friend, I just know I got to get out But everywhere I go, I see lovers hand in hand Reminds me of the way it used to be Reminds me of the way it used to be boy, baby it felt so right When you were walkin' with me, don't you see? I'm cryin' how could you leave me all alone I'm cryin' just can't make it on my own I dream of you the whole day through But when the night time falls, I'm all alone Cryin' all alone When I close my eyes, I can feel your lips on mine Nobody ever touched me like you did Nobody ever touched me like you did boy There ain't a thing I wouldn't give Baby, for just one more kiss, don't you see? I'm cryin' how could you leave me all alone I'm cryin' just can't make it on my own I dream of you the whole day through But when the night time falls, I'm all alone Cryin' all alone My friends say I'll love again, I wanna believe but why pretend Tell me why, why pretend baby, I'm always gonna feel the same No one will ever take your place, no nothing can compare With the love that we shared, baby, don't you see?
