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

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 and me against the night, and it's a long brutal night
And 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 lean on
A true friend, but nothin'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

Yeah, 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
