When You're Lonely Lyrics

I almost didn't answer
When I saw your number
Don't you know it's 2:18
In the middle of the night

Did you fight with your girlfriend?
Could you not sleep?
Did a strong shot of whiskey
Leave ya feeling weak?

You only want me when you're lonley
You only call me when you're down
You only want me when you're lonely
But you can't have me now

I don't know what you expected
Did you think I'd let you in?
Somehow get the best of me
With some pretty, little lies

I've made that mistake
I've let you crawl back in
Now I don't have the heart
To fall for you again

You only want me when you're lonely
You only call me when you're down
You only want me when you're lonely
But you can't have me now

Don't tell me you love me
Don't say all the right things
You're having one of those nights
And I know what that means

So you want me right now
But nothing's really changed
You're just by yourself
And it's late, too late

You only want me when you're lonley
You only call me when you're down
You only want me when you're lonely
But you can't have me now

You only want me when you're lonely
But you can't have me now

You only want me when you're lonely
But you can't have me now

You only want me when you're lonely
But you can't have me now

I think this song is really self explanatory. It's about a guy who's cheated on his girlfriend with another girl and the other girl has fallen for him. She's finally finding it in herself to move on and get over him because the way she wants things to be isn't going to be the way things are.
