[Verse 1]
When I had you here
I treated you bad and wrong my dear
And since, girl, since you been away
Don'tcha know I sit around
With my head hangin' down
And I wonder who is lovin' you
[Verse 2]
I, I, I, I should have never ever, ever made you cry
And since girl since you been gone
Don'tcha know I sit around
With my head hangin' down
And I wonder who is lovin' you
[Bridge]
Life without love is oh so lonely
I don't think I'm gonna make it
All my life, all my love belongs to you only
Come on and take it girl, come on and take it!
[Verse 3]
Because all I can do, all I can do
Since you been gone is cry
And you, oooh, yeah ever wonder
And wonder your pretty head about what I do
Don'tcha know I sit around
With my head hangin down
And I wonder who is lovin' you
(Who's lovin you)
When I had you here
I treated you bad and wrong my dear
And since, girl, since you been away
Don'tcha know I sit around
With my head hangin' down
And I wonder who is lovin' you
[Verse 2]
I, I, I, I should have never ever, ever made you cry
And since girl since you been gone
Don'tcha know I sit around
With my head hangin' down
And I wonder who is lovin' you
[Bridge]
Life without love is oh so lonely
I don't think I'm gonna make it
All my life, all my love belongs to you only
Come on and take it girl, come on and take it!
[Verse 3]
Because all I can do, all I can do
Since you been gone is cry
And you, oooh, yeah ever wonder
And wonder your pretty head about what I do
Don'tcha know I sit around
With my head hangin down
And I wonder who is lovin' you
(Who's lovin you)
