Shel Silverstein
I Don’t Want to Be Alone Tonight
[Verse 1]
Your phone's gonna ring in the darkness of night
And you'll rise from the bed where you lay
You'll answer "hello" and from out of the past
A voice you once loved is gonna say
[Chorus]
I don't wanna be alone tonight, I don't wanna be alone
I just had to call someone who used to care
I don't wanna be alone tonight, I don't wanna be alone
Just say that you still want me and I'll be there
[Verse 2]
Maybe someday, you'll lie there and look at the rain
Feeling afraid and alone
Feeling a hunger you just can't explain
And you'll be the voice on the phone
[Chorus]
I don't wanna be alone tonight, I don't wanna be alone
I just had to call someone who used to care
I don't wanna be alone tonight, I don't wanna be alone
Just say that you still want me and I'll be there
Just say that you still want me and I'll be there
