Grass Roots Only When You're Lonely
Only, when you're lonely
do you come knockin' at my door
Knowin' that I'll be there
To give you what you're looking for
All of your so called friends have let you fall
Only when you're lonely do you run to me
Only when you're lonely do you come to me
Only, when you're lonely do you think of me at all.
I'm not, kidding myself
I know just where I fit in your plans
So don't you start kidding yourself
I'm not the fool you think I am
Oh, you toy with me just like I was your rubber ball
Only when you're lonely do you run to me
Only when you're lonely do you come to me
Only, when you're lonely do you think of me at all.
I don't mind, (I don't mind)
comes a time
I spend with you is precious to me
and though it's true (and though it's true)
I'll need you
Oh yes I'll write cuz' I like having you around me.
Only when you're lonely
do you come knockin' at my door
knowin' somehow I'll be there
like the too many times I've been before
Oh loving you, I know is my biggest fault.
Only when you're lonely do you run to me
Only when you're lonely do you come to me
Only, when you're lonely do you think of me at all.
