I've been waiting on my own for a lifetime and it shows

God, the way I seem to keep my distance from you

Baby, there's no need to go, prove you love me when it shows

And the ones before you made it hard to love at all.

Every time I tried to make myself seem small

In the arms of others who never loved me better

All the ways I tried to make myself less selfish

It never made them stay and I can't love me like this

I can't love me like this.

So, can you call all your friends, baby?

Tell them to find other plans

'cause I need you tonight, baby

I need to know that everything's alright, baby

I need to know that everything's alright.

I've been waiting for someone who will cure what I've become

God, the way I seem to need nobody but you

Maybe there's another way, I can never make you stay

And the ones before you never loved me like you do.

Every time I tried to make myself seem small

In the arms of others, they never love you better

Every time I tried to make myself seem empty

It never made them stay, it only made them hurt me

Only made them hurt me.

So, can you call all your friends, baby?

Tell them to find other plans

'cause I need you tonight, baby

I need to know that everything's alright, baby.

So, can you call all your friends, baby?

Tell them to find other plans

'cause I need you tonight, baby

I need to know that everything's alright, baby.

So, can you call all your friends?

Tell them to find other plans

'cause I need you tonight

I need to know that everything's alright

I need to know that everything's alright.
