[Verse 1]
Listen
Girl, we really need to chop it up
Some things I know I need to say out loud
Can we talk about it?
Where I'm at is what you need to know
And how you act determines where we go, so here we go

[Chorus]
I don't wanna be all by myself
But I can be unhappy without you
I can be unhappy without you, out you
I don't want nobody else
But I can be unhappy without you
I can be unhappy without you, out you
I can be unhappy without you
I can be unhappy without you
I can be unhappy without you
Without you, out you

[Verse 2]
I hate it when you turn it off and on
When the morning love is right
Then you turn left and the day is gone
It's like a cycle, girl, what's going on?
It almost like we don't want it
I'm losing you and I don't know why

[Pre-Chorus]
Used to feel so good, it used to be so right
You used to make love to me every single night
Girl, how can we get back to that blissful synergy, yeah
You gotta give me everything, if you wanna be with me

[Chorus]
I don't wanna be all by myself
But I can be unhappy without you
I can be unhappy without you, out you
I don't want nobody else
But I can be unhappy without you
I can be unhappy without you, out you, sing
I can be unhappy without you
I can be unhappy without you
I can be unhappy without you
Without you, out you
I can be unhappy without you
I can be unhappy without you
I can be unhappy without you
Without you, out you

[Bridge]
Used to feel so good, it used to be so right
You used to make love to me every single night
Girl, how can we get back to that blissful synergy, yeah
You gotta give me everything, if you wanna stay with me

[Chorus]
I don't wanna be all by myself
But I can be unhappy without you
I can be unhappy without you, out you, yeah
I don't want nobody else
But I can be unhappy without you
I can be unhappy without you, out you, yeah
I don't wanna be all by myself
But I can be unhappy without you
I can be unhappy without you, out you
I don't want nobody else
But I can be unhappy without you
I can be unhappy without you, out you, yeah
I can be unhappy without you
I can be unhappy without you
I can be unhappy without you
Without you, out you
I don't wanna be all by myself
I can be unhappy without you
I can be unhappy without you
I can be unhappy without you
Without you, out you
