“I Get Lonely” was the third commercially released single from Janet Jackson’s sixth album The Velvet Rope.
Like many of the other songs on the album, “Lonely” is both unapologetically melancholic and resoundingly melodic. For its radio release, the song was remixed by Teddy Riley and Timbaland fea...
[Chorus]
I get so lonely, can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
I want no one but you
I get so lonely, can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
I want no one but...
[Verse 1]
Sittin' here with my tears
All alone with my fears, I'm wondering
If I have to do without you
But there's no reason why
I fell asleep late last night
Cryin' like a newborn child
Holdin' myself close
Pretendin' my arms are yours
I want no one but you
[Chorus]
I get so lonely, can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
I want no one but you
I get so lonely, can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
I want no one but...
[Verse 2]
I still remember to the day
In fact it was a third Monday
You came along to be the one for me
And now I'm alone
I'm sittin' here by the phone
Call and say that you're okay
So that I have
The chance to beg you to stay
I want no one but you
[Chorus]
I get so lonely, can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
I want no one but you
I get so lonely, can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
I want no one but you
I get so lonely, can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
I want no one but you
I get so lonely, can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
I want no one but...
[Breakdown]
Gonna break it down, break it down, break it down
Gonna break it down, break it down, break it down
You know that I know that I get so lonely thinking of you
[Chorus]
I get so lonely, can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
I want no one but you
I get so lonely, can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
Want no one but you
I get so lonely, can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
I want no one but you
I get so lonely, can't let just anybody hold me
You are the one that lives in me, my dear
Want no one but you
