Song | If You Think You're Lonely Now |
Artist | Bobby Womack |
Album | The Poet |
I wanna dedicate this song to all the lovers tonight | |
And I expect that might be the whole world | |
Because everybody needs something or someone to love | |
When it's cold outside who are you holding? | |
You know, if y'all don't mind I'd like to talk about this woman of mine | |
She's always complainin' â€~bout me never bein' at home | |
But when I'm down broke | |
She's tellin' me about the things that her girlfriend's got | |
What she ain't got and she wants me to go out and get â€~em for her | |
But girl, I can't be in two places at one time | |
If you think you're lonely now, huh | |
Wait until tonight, girl | |
(If you think you're lonely now) | |
I'll be long gone | |
(Wait until tonight, girl) | |
And you'll find another man that'll treat you right | |
(If you think you're lonely now) | |
When I ain't there to rub your back | |
(Wait until tonight, girl) | |
Just remember I made it a long fact | |
And the skeletons come out of the closet | |
And chase you all around your room | |
And the memories sail â€~round like a ghost | |
And that's a matter of fact, no joke, ah | |
If you think you're lonely now | |
(If you think you're lonely now) | |
Oh, wait until tonight | |
(Wait until tonight, girl) | |
I'll be long gone | |
(If you think you're lonely now) | |
And you'll never find another man that'll treat you right | |
(You just wait until tonight, girl) | |
(If you think you're lonely now) | |
You think you're lonely now | |
(Wait until tonight, girl) | |
Wait, wait, wait until tonight, girl | |
Oh, ain't it funny how the tables turn | |
When things aren't goin' your way? | |
But when love runs out and the pain walks in | |
And settles for a stay, ooh | |
(If you think you're lonely now) | |
Lord, help me, I feel like I wanna testify | |
(Wait until tonight, girl) | |
(If you think you're lonely now) | |
Girl, wait until tonight | |
(Wait until tonight, girl) | |
If you think you're lonely, lonely now | |
(If you think you're lonely now) | |
(Wait until tonight, girl) | |
Oh, you just wait until tonight, girl | |
(If you think you're lonely now) | |
(Wait until tonight, girl) | |
You see tonight's the night when the needs come out | |
When your needs come out to breathe | |
And you toast the stars and there ain't now way you can sleep, ooh | |
(If you think you're lonely now) | |
If you think you're lonely now | |
(Wait until tonight, girl) | |
I feel like I wanna testify this evenin' | |
(If you think you're lonely now) | |
I'm lonely, â€~cause I know I gotta leave you, oh, girl | |
(Wait until tonight, girl) | |
I just can't take no more | |
(If you think you're lonely now) | |
Ooh, hoo, hoo | |
(You just wait until tonight, girl) | |
Ah, girl, you just wait | |
(If you think you're lonely now) | |
If you think you got problems now, baby, you just wait | |
(Wait until tonight, girl) | |
Wait | |
(If you think you're lonely now) | |
Too far gone | |
(Wait until tonight, girl) | |
Like you're runnin' out | |
(If you think you're lonely now) | |
Ooh, hoo, ooh, hoo, babe | |
(Wait until tonight, girl) | |
You say you're a little lonely | |
(If you think you're lonely now) | |
But everybody needs somebody to love | |
(Wait until tonight, girl) | |
(If you think you're lonely now) | |
It's good that you know that you got somebody that'll stand by your side | |
That'll build you up when you're fallin' down | |
(Wait until tonight, girl) | |
And you had that someone, baby | |
(If you think you're lonely now) | |
â€~Cause I've done my time | |
(Wait until tonight, girl) | |
And it's your turn now | |
(If you think you're lonely now) | |
If you think you're lonely now | |
(Wait until tonight, girl) | |
Wait, wait until tonight | |
(If you think you're lonely now) | |
I'm tired, tired of this same old stuck in the hour | |
(Wait until tonight, girl) | |
It's been too long | |
(If you think you're lonely now) | |
You think, you could start all over again, it's been too long | |
(Wait until tonight, girl) | |
You think you could start it just one more time | |
(If you think you're lonely now) |
I wanna dedicate this song to all the lovers tonight | |
