[Verse 1]
Excuse me miss
Is there a reason why you're here this evening all by yourself?
Is there something I can say to make you smile?
Would you like to be alone or can I stay a while?
We could talk, tell me a story
Where you're from, where you've been
Why don't we take it nice and slow
What's it like where you were brought up
[?] I don't know
Whatever it is, you need to know...

[Chorus]
You don't have to be lonely no more
You don't have to be lonely no more
You don't have to be lonely no more
No more, no more
You don't have to be lonely no more
You don't have to be lonely no more
You don't have to be lonely no more
No more

[Verse 2]
Let me tell you this
I'd be [?] if I didn't tell you just a little bit about myself
You might've heard I'm a player, that's not entirely untrue
But maybe I've been waiting for somebody just like you
Just tell me that [?]
Get to know me a little better
Roll with me, nobody's better
If you love me, I'll leave you never
Rock with me, see how it flows
Everywhere you go, you need to know...

[Chorus]
You don't have to be lonely no more
You don't have to be lonely no more
You don't have to be lonely no more
No more, no more
You don't have to be lonely no more
You don't have to be lonely no more
You don't have to be lonely no more
No more

[Bridge]
You don't have to be, you don't have to be all alone
You don't have to be lonely no more
You don't have to be, you don't have to be all alone
You don't have to be lonely
You don't have to be, you don't have to be all alone
You don't have to be lonely no more
You don't have to be, you don't have to be all alone
You don't have to be lonely

[Chorus]
You don't have to be lonely no more
You don't have to be lonely no more
You don't have to be lonely no more
No more, no more
You don't have to be lonely no more
You don't have to be lonely no more
You don't have to be lonely no more
No more

[Outro]
You don't have to be, you don't have to be all alone
You don't have to be lonely no more
You don't have to be, you don't have to be all alone
You don't have to be lonely
You don't have to be, you don't have to be all alone
You don't have to be lonely no more
You don't have to be, you don't have to be all alone
You don't have to be lonely
