I'm Lonely For You - Bettye Swann

Oh, they say that into each lie

Some rain must blow

And the tears as only rain

To make love blow

But I’ve been crying, uh, for days

And all I’ve got to show for it

It’s a swooned face

Tears can help me fun

Answers to the problems you left behind

Honey

Tears can help me high

This emptiness that I’m feeling sad

Only your love can save me

Where are you, baby?

I’m lonely for you, baby

I’m so lonely for you

Listen now

Over and over

I keep telling myself

You had to have a reason to go

Looking for the love of someone else

If you’re looking for true love

You left it behind

Anything else she wants that I don’t have

I’ll help you back

I’ve got a hatch where you are

And what you up to, oh baby

This you don’t have to do

If there is any doubt to the man who loves

Let me remove it

Just rain on a home to me baby

Let me through they say that

Time heals a broken heart

But if that’s the case, honey

Time is going to spar, no

Because you’d been gone

Oh, so long

And I’m jousted down on hared

As I was when you left home

It’s time that I realize

The time aren’t on my side, honey

Time and time again

I’ll try the love again

But now was deny

Only your love can see me

Where are you, baby?

I’m lonely for you, baby

I’m so lonely for you
