Verse 1
My bags are packed and I'm about to go
you said you needed time to be alone
but just incase you have a change of mind
here's my number where I'll be tonight

You know its was hard for me to understand
but I'm gonnna try and be a an understanding man
I'm hoping you will have a change of heart
'cause without you I'm gon' fall apart

Chorus
I don't want to be lonely
I don't want to see a day without you
I don't want nobody else in your arms
I don't want nobody holding you
I don't want to be lonely
I don't want nobody laughing wit you
I don't want nobody else in your heart
I don't want nobody loving you

Verse 2
I left an address on the kitchen door
with a set of keys both mine and yours
I'm hoping i won't need these keys for long
'cause I'm praying you'll ask me back home

I don't want to be lonely
I don't want to see a day without you
I don't want nobody else in your arms
I don't want nobody holding you
I don't want to be lonely
I don't want nobody laughing wit you
I don't want nobody else in your heart
I don't want nobody loving you


Oh baby baby don't walk from me
I know that you will need some time to yourself
I'll give you what you hope you need from me
I will give you the space girl whatever it takes
i don't want to be here alone I'm so alone

My bags are packed and I'm about to go
I'm giving you the time to be alone
but just incase you have a change of mind
here's my number where I'll be baby baby baby


I don't want to be lonely
I don't want to see a day without you
I don't want nobody else in your arms
I don't want nobody holding you
I don't want to be lonely
I don't want nobody laughing wit you
I don't want nobody else in your heart
I don't want nobody loving you


My bags are packed and I'm about to go
I'm giving you the time to be alone
but just incase you have a change of mind
here's my number where I'll be baby baby baby

I don't want to be lonely
I don't want to see a day without you
I don't want nobody else in your arms
I don't want nobody holding you
I don't want to be lonely
I don't want nobody laughing wit you
I don't want nobody else in your heart
I don't want nobody loving you


my bags are packed and I'm about to go
my bags are packed and im........

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
