Lyrics

[Verse 1]  
Here I am again doing things I said that I wouldn't do  
It's 3 am and I'm rushing out the door to see you  
Waiting all day, but now you want to call me  
Why do you do this to me all the time?  
  
[Chorus]  
After all the things you put me through, still I come right back  
But now I know the truth, I can finally see  
You only want me when you're lonely  
If I say I'm going to leave, that's the only time you want me  
Next time you need me there I won't make it  
Another late night call I won't take it  
Cos now I finally see, you only want me when you're lonely  
Only when you're lonely, lonely  
Only when you're lonely  
Only when you're lonely, lonely  
Only when you're lonely  
  
[Verse 2]  
Had me fooled from the start and I quickly gave my heart  
Because I loved you, loved you  
But this is what happens when you're a lonely girl  
With no one to turn you  
Now I'm stronger, don't need you any longer  
So get off your knees, your words don't mean anything  
  
After all the things you put me through, still I come right back  
But now I know the truth, I can finally see  
You only want me when you're lonely  
If I say I'm going to leave, that's the only time you want me  
Next time you need me there I won't make it  
Another late night call I won't take it  
Because now I finally see, you only want me when you're lonely  
  
Nothing's ever changing, decisions you can't make it  
You just think of yourself and never me at all  
If you're with your friends, you just string me along  
But I won't allow it anymore, so it's time for me to move on  
  
[Chorus]  
Because I can finally see, you only want me when you're lonely  
If I say I'm going to leave, that's the only time you want me  
Next time you need me there I won't make it  
Another late night call I won't take it  
Cos now I finally see, you only want me when you're lonely  
Only when you're lonely, lonely  
Only when you're lonely  
Only when you're lonely, lonely  
Only when you're lonely  
  
[Verse 3]  
I can finally see, you only want me when you're lonely  
If I say I'm going to leave, that's the only time you want me  
Next time you need me there I won't make it  
Another late night call I won't take it  
Because now I finally see, you only want me when you're lonely
