Through the lonely nights I think of you

Through the lonely hours I dream of you

I don't no why I do it, but I do

Why do you take it, what's wrong with you?

Through the lonely weekends I'm far from you

Why you're coming on, like you're supposed to do, yes

Oh, but you know me so well,

And your time ain't so hard to sell.

Every time I see ya

Every time I see ya

Every time I see ya

Every time I see you.

In your cherry dresses and your shiny shoes

In a doorway on some neon avenue

Making the lonely pay for me

Why don't we set each other free.

When did I mislead ya

When did I misread ya

When did I mistreat ya

When did I deceive ya.

Oh, I'm stuck out want to cry, cry, cry

Sleep in the doorway, lord, making a rendezvous

Lord, I'm stuck out baby, want to cry cry cry cry cry cry cry

Lord, babe, I li, li, li, li, li lord...
