I Gotta Find a Way (To Get You Back)
Woo
Since you've been gone, girl
Said that, I've been so all alone, girl
You've got me afraid, afraid to close my eyes
Each time I do it's you I visualize
Baby, baby, I can see you walking away (walking away, girl)
Just like you did that day, girl (did that day, girl)
The same hurt that I felt when we parted
Baby, baby, once again I started
So don't you know that I (I gotta find a way)
Ooh, I gotta find a way (to get you back, girl)
Ooh, (I'm so lonely)
Nights I can't sleep, girl
I tell you, without you, I'm weak girl
Listen, not one single day, day goes by
Can I wake up without tear-filled eyes
Listen, I'm very seldom leave my lonely room (leave my lonely room, girl) (?)
'Cause without ya my life is filled with gloom (filled with gloom, girl)
There is no inch of the tears that I shed
Girl, I'm slowly going out of my head
So don't you know that I (I gotta find a way)
Ooh, gotta get you back. (to get you back, girl)
Oh yeah, (I'm so lonely)
I gotta get ya back, girl
(I gotta find a way to get you back, oh baby)
(I gotta find a way to get you back, oh baby)
Ooh, girl, oh girl, girl, ooh
Now when I'm out walking (I gotta find a way to get you back, oh baby)
Huh, girl, I always wind up on your street (I gotta find a way to get you back, oh baby)
Look it here, I'm just a broken-hearted guy (I gotta find a way to get you back, oh baby)
In a dark and lonely world (I gotta find a way to get you back, oh baby)
In need of a love you took from me (I gotta find a way to get you back, oh baby)
Baby, baby all I do is think about you, baby (thinking about you)
It's a cold, lonely world without you (cold world without you)
Girl, my heart ain't getting no stronger
I just can't carry on very much longer
So don't you know that I (I gotta find a way)
Ooh (to get you back, girl)
Got to get you back
I, I, I, I (I'm so lonely)
I gotta get you back (I gotta find a way to get you back)
Oh baby, baby (oh, baby)
I gotta get you back (I gotta find a way to get you back)
Woo, look it here (oh, baby)
I got to find a way to get you back (girl)
Woo (I'm so lonely)
I gotta find a way (I gotta find a way to get you back)
Oh baby, baby, baby (oh, baby)
I gotta find a way (I gotta find a way to get you back)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (oh, baby)
I got to find a way to get you back (girl)
Oh, ooh (I'm so lonely)
Since you've been gone, girl
Said that, I've been so all alone, girl
