[Intro: Janet Jackson & Teddy Riley]
Yeah
I get so lonely
Without you
I can't let anybody else hold me
Yeah
I need you
I need you, uh
Pick it up

[Chorus: Janet Jackson & Chauncey "Black" Hannibal]
(Oh) I get so lonely (Get so lonely)
Can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
(You are the one, oh)
Want no one but you
I get so lonely (Get so lonely)
Can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
(JJ, let me hear you sing)
Want no one but you

[Verse 1: Janet Jackson]
Sittin' here with my tеars
All alone with my fears
I'm wonderin if I havе to do
Without ya
But there's no reason why
I feel asleep late last night
Cryin' like a newborn child
Holdin' myself close
Pretendin' my arms are yours
I want no one but you
[Chorus: Janet Jackson & Chauncey "Black" Hannibal]
I get so lonely
Can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
Want no one but you
I get so lonely (Lonely, baby, ah yeah)
Can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
(Listen to me, baby)
Want no one but you

[Verse 2: Chauncey "Black" Hannibal]
I still remember to the day
In fact it was a third Monday
You came along to be the one for me
And now I'm so all alone
I'm sittin' here by the phone (The phone)
Call and say that you're okay
So that I'll have the chance
To beg you to stay
I want no one but you

[Chorus: Janet Jackson & Chauncey "Black" Hannibal, Chauncey]
I get so lonely (Get so lonely, oh yeah)
Can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
I want no one but you
I get so lonely (I get)
Can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
And I want no one but you
I get so lonely
(Every time I see your face)
(Every time I see your)
(Every time I hear your name)
Can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
(I can't believe that you and me are no longer)
Want no one but you
I get so lonely
(Every time I see your face)
(Every time I see your)
(Every time I hear your name)
Can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
(You are the love that lives in me, baby)
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
Want no one but you
(Break it down, break it down)
[Bridge: Janet Jackson & Chauncey "Black" Hannibal, Chauncey]
Gonna break it down, break it down, break it down
Gonna break it down, break it down, break it down
Whoa-oh
You know (I know)
That I know (Oh)
That I get so lonely thinking of you
Ooh-hoo
No-oh-oh-no, no-oh-oh

[Chorus: Janet Jackson & Chauncey "Hannibal" Black]
I get so lonely (Get lonely when I hear your name)
Can't let just anybody hold me
(I get lonely when I see your face)
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
(My, my, my, my, my, my, my)
Want no one but you
I get so lonely (Get lonely when I hear your name)
(Hear your name)
Can't let just anybody hold me
(I get lonely when I see your face)
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
I don't want no one else but you (No, no)
I get so lonely
(Every time I see your face)
(Every time I see your)
(Every time I hear your name)
Can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
(You are the love that lives in me, baby)
(You're the one that lives in me)
Want no one but you
I get so lonely
(Every time I hear your name)
(Every time I hear your name)
(Every time I see your face)
Can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
(I can't believe that you and me are no longer)
(No longer)
Want no one but you
