38 Special - Never Be Lonely

Says she wants to dance real slow
Real slow
It's gettin' late and it's time to go
But I don't wanna know
Feels strange to be holding on to someone new
After so long
Don't tell me what I need to hear
Tell me what I wanna hear
And baby make me believe it

[Chorus:]
Say I'll never be lonely again
I don't need a lover tonight just a friend
I know I'm lost but maybe you found me
Tell me lies and put your arms around me
Say I'll never be lonely again
Help me to pretend

Whisper to me it'll be alright
And it'll be alright
I guess it's you & me against the night
And it's a long brutal night
& if I'm dragging you into my life
That's the price of the ticket
It's good to have you along for the ride
Now speak those words
I don't care if you don't mean it

Say I'll never be lonely again
I don't need a lover tonight just a friend
I know I'm lost but maybe you found me
Tell me lies and put your arms around me
Say I'll never be lonely again
Help me to pretend

In a world of hurt
You need someone you can bleed on
A true friend
But nothing's ever for sure
Sometimes a friend can be
Long gone

Says she wants to dance real slow
Real slow
It's gettin' late and it's time to go
But just lie once more
Baby make me believe it

You know I'm lost but maybe you found me
Tell me lies and put your arms around me
Say I'll never be lonely again
Help me to pretend
