If You Think You're Lonely Now Lyrics

I just wanna dedicate this song to all the lovers in the world tonight.
And I expect that's to be the whole world because everybody needs
someone or something to love.
Yeah.

When it's cold outside, girl, who are you holding?
You'll be holding me.
Well, well, well, well, well. Ha, ha, ha.
Said if y'all don't mind, can I talk about this woman I have?
She's always complaining about the things she ain't got
And the things her girlfriend's got.
But lady, I wanna let you know.
I just can't be in two places at one time.

If you think you're lonely now, ooh yeah,
Wait until tonight, girl.
Oh, you better wait until tonight. (If you think you're lonely now,)
Yeah, baby. (Wait until tonight, girl.)
I'll be long gone, yes I will. (If you think you're lonely now,)
(Wait until tonight, girl.) You better wait until tonight.

When skeletons come out of your closet
And chase you all around the room,
Memories sail like a ghost
And dance in a sad, slow tune, baby, baby.

(If you think you're lonely now,) If you think you're lonely now,
(Wait until tonight, girl.) Wait until tonight.
Wait until tonight, baby. (If you think you're lonely now,)
Yeah, yeah.
(Wait until tonight, girl.) You better wait until tonight.
Do you believe me, baby? (If you think you're lonely now,)
(Wait until tonight, girl.) Ah, ah, ah, ah, oh.

Ain't it funny how tables turn when things aren't going your way, ha.
When love walks out, pain walks in.
It'll have its stay.

(If you think you're lonely now,) Think you're lonely now,
Wait until tonight, girl.
(If you think you're lonely now,) You better wait girl, yeah.
(Wait until tonight, girl.) If you think you're lonely now,
(If you think you're lonely now,) Hold on, ooh yeah.
Ha, ha, ha. Whoo! (Wait until tonight, girl.)

I wanna testify, I wanna testify.
I wanna testify to ya, ha.
I just got one thing to say,
If you think you're lonely now.

(If you think you're lonely now,) Baby, yeah.
Wait until tonight, girl.
Said you're feeling. (If you think you're lonely now,)
Ooh yeah.
(Wait until tonight, girl.) Oh, don't be a fool.
(If you think you're lonely now,) Baby, please don't be a fool.
Wait until tonight, girl.
(If you think you're lonely now,) I want you, baby.
Baby, baby, ha.
