Lonely Too Long Lyrics

Well good morning
Tell me, how'd you sleep last night?
You're still smiling, so we must have done something right
Don't feel guilty, because you turned to me last night

We ain't done nothin' wrong,
We've just been lonely too long
No, we ain't done nothin wrong,
We've just been lonely too long

It's only natural, when you've been to long in the dark
To look for comfort and to warm yourself by the fire
We're just afraid we might get our fingers burned

We ain't done nothin' wrong,
We've just been lonely too long
No, we ain't done nothin wrong,
We've just been lonely too long

Nothing's wrong that can't be cured with a new love
All you need is someone like me,
to be a sure of, to be your love

I'll be waiting standing right outside your heart
And I'll be watching for the slightest sign of a spark
And I'll be here if you should want to turn to me

We ain't done nothin' wrong,
We've just been lonely too long
No, we ain't done nothin wrong,
We've just been lonely too long

We ain't done nothin' wrong,
We've just been lonely too long
No, we ain't done nothin wrong,
We've just been lonely too long

I can't see how no one has commented on this song.

It's pretty obvious. 2 lonely people, she's telling him it's alright, that what they've 'done' and she's stating to him, that if he should need to turn to her again, she'll be there if he wants her, for another night, or for a new relationship....because they've both been lonely and need to seek comfort within each others arms.

That's what I get out of it anyways.

I love this song. Kinda goin through this at the time with someone.

and I also want to add, they've both been hurt before, and in seeking comfort in each others arms, are afraid of getting 'burned' again or hurt again. She's saying, what we've done there's nothing wrong with it because it made both of them happy, if even for a short period of time, and if he should want more, she'll be waiting with an open heart and open arms...to love him with all that she is.
