I've been close to love but never fallen in it
Yeah, I've said the words before but never really meant it
I've never been this far, it's never really fit
Like you laying in my arms, if this ain't it, I quit

If it ain't you
If it can't be you then, baby, I choose lonely
You're the one and only
If it ain't us
Then I guess making love just wasn't meant for me
'Cause you're all I need
Oh, I've never been so sure of being so damn sure of something
And if what you got ain't what I get, then I don't want nothin'
If it ain't you
If it can't be you then, baby, I choose lonely
Yeah, I'd rather be lonely

I never knew what I was missing till I found you
Till my t-shirt and my whole world were wrapped around you
Well, I can't imagine this with anybody else
Yeah, I'd rather ride off in that sunset by myself

If it ain't you
If it can't be you then, baby, I choose lonely
You're the one and only
If it ain't us
Then I guess making love just wasn't meant for me
'Cause you're all I need
Oh, I've never been so sure of being so damn sure of something
And if what you got ain't what I get, then I don't want nothin'
If it ain't you
If it can't be you then, baby, I choose lonely
Yeah, I'd rather be lonely

Ooh, I'd rather be lonely

If it ain't you
If ain't you baby, I choose lonely
If it ain't you
If it ain't you I don't want nobody
Nobody

Ooh, if it ain't you
If it can't be you then, baby, I choose lonely
You're the one and only
If it ain't us
Then I guess making love just wasn't meant for me
'Cause you're all I need
Oh, I've never been so sure of being so damn sure of something
And if what you got ain't what I get, then I don't want nothin'
If it ain't you
If it can't be you then, baby, I choose lonely
Yeah, I'd rather be lonely
I'd rather be lonely
Yeah, I'd rather be alone
Rather be lonely
Ah, yeah
Alright
Ah, yeah
Alright
