Lyrics Alone Too Long - Daryl Hall & John Oates

Just a little boy lost looking for a lamb in the all-night city
Living in his lonely limousine
And though he never has to worry
He's the only one and only one he's ever gonna need
Absolutely he's in definite need

Of a woman, child
And some better kind of love when the hot town hurt him
And he knows how happy he could be

But he don't know if he can make it
Between the money and another lonely night
Now the time has come
Got to stay or run, know the time has come

(Ooh, maybe) we've been alone too long
(You don't want to be lonely, maybe)
We've been alone too long
(You don't want to be lonely)

Another pretty face, another body ache, still awake 3:30
Dial another number, no one home
So then he wastes his time with TV
And he wonders if he lost the only one
And wonders if he's free
Too afraid to see how alone he could be

(Ooh, maybe) we've been alone too long
(You don't want to be lonely, maybe)
We've been alone too long
(You don't want to be lonely)

We've been alone too long
I know (you don't want to be lonely)
Don't wanna be lonely (don't want to be lonely)
Don't want to be lonely, lonely
(You don't want to be lonely)

(Ooh maybe) we've been alone too long
(You don't want to be lonely, maybe)
We've been alone too long
(You don't want to be lonely)
Don't wanna be lonely (don't want to be lonely)
Don't wanna be lonely, lonely
(You don't want to be lonely)

In everything, they gonna work it out together yeah
(You don't want to be lonely)
Don't wanna be lonely, lonely
(You don't want to be lonely)
