Last night (last night)
I couldn't even get an answer (answer)
I tried to call (tried to call)
But my pride wouldn't let me dial (dial)
And I'm sitting here with this blank expression (expression)
And the way I feel
I wanna curl up like a child (child)
I know you can hear me
I know you can feel me
I can't live without you
God, please make me better
I wish I wasn't the way I am
If I told you once, I told you twice
You can see it in my eyes
I'm all cried out with nothing to say
You're everything I wanted to be
If you could only see your heart belongs to me
I love you so much
I'm yearning for your touch
Come and set me free
Forever yours I'll be
Baby, won't you come and take this pain away?
Last night (oh, last night)
I couldn't even get an answer (oh baby, what you wanna do to me?)
I tried to call (Alright)
But my pride wouldn't let me dial (why wouldn't you just tell me, baby?)
And I'm sitting here
With this blank expression (don't save me baby, no, no)
And the way I feel
I wanna curl up like a child (I'm so alone, I'm so lonely, baby oh)
Tell me what words to say
To make you come back and break me like that
And if it matters, I'd rather stay home
With you, I'm never alone
Don't wanna wait 'til you're gone
Whatever you do, just don't leave me
Last night
I couldn't even get an answer (couldn't get an answer, baby)
I tried to call (call me, baby)
But my pride wouldn't let me dial (why couldn't you just tell me?)
And I'm sitting here (baby, baby, baby, baby)
With this blank expression (don't sit there, no)
And the way I feel (alright, yeah)
I wanna curl up like a child (I'm so alone, I'm so lonely, baby oh)
I need you, and you need me (I need you)
This is so plain to see
And I will never let you go
And I will always love you so, I will
If you could only see (you could only see)
Your heart belongs to me (belongs to me)
I love you so much (so, so)
I'm yearning for your touch
Come and set me free (set me free, yeah)
Forever yours I'll be
Baby, won't you come and take my pain away?
Last night
I couldn't even get an answer (I couldn't get you, baby, yeah)
I tried to call (call me, baby)
But my pride wouldn't let me dial (why couldn't you just tell me?)
And I'm sitting here (baby, baby, baby, baby, baby)
With this blank expression (don't sit there, no)
And the way I feel (alright, yeah)
I wanna curl up like a child (I'm so alone, I'm so lonely, baby oh)
Why don't you pick up the phone
And dial up my number
And call me up, baby?
I'm waiting on you
Why don't you pick up-
