Laying around home alone
On a rainy night like this Starving for your love Hungry for just one kiss Every raindrop I hear On my window pane yeah Beats so loud and clear Why does it tell your name? I got nowhere to turn to Tired of being alone I feel like breaking up somebody's home I know it's useless Hanging on to you When you belong to someone else Can't control the feelin' Cause after all I didn't make it myself Last night I cried so hard I believe I caught a chill Can't control the vibration My heart just won't stand still Got nowhere to turn to I'm tired of being alone I feel like breaking up somebody's home I know you hear me talkin' I know it's useless Hanging on to you When you belong to someone else Can't control the vibration Cause after all I didn't make it myself Got nowhere to turn to I'm tired of being alone I feel like breaking up somebody's home |
