[Verse 1]
Could I be the one thing
Missing from your life
And from your everyday?
I need you to be beside me
Why don't you call me and we'll see?
I see you having coffee
You are almost beside me
Laughing with your friends
I tell Lorraine to look at you
I tell her I need to tell you

[Chorus 1]
I don't know you
But I want to
I just can't leave here
Without telling you --
Just how lonely I've been lately
You are just as lonely, maybe?
We should go out for some coffee

[Verse 2]
I wonder how I can
Give you my phone number
And not be so afraid?
I ask Lorraine to give it to you
When I go to the washroom
I return to the table
I look, but I'm unable
To find you anywhere
I ask Lorraine to look for you
I tell her I need to tell you
[Chorus 1]
Don't know you
But I want to
I just can't leave here
Without telling you --
Just how lonely I've been lately
You are just as lonely, maybe?
We should go out for some coffee

[Outro]
On the way out the door
Lorraine lets me know that she went up to you
And gave you my number and said
'call him or else he'll be sad.'
And I waited, for two weeks and
I realized that you'd never call me
How could I have been so stupid
I should have gone up to you and
Told you myself how you make me feel
