She said she'd meet me in the bar
|
At the Plaza Hotel
|
"Wear a jacket and a tie"
|
"What's the occasion?"
|
She just smiled and she wouldn't say why
|
So here I am standing, waiting in the lobby
|
Sweating bullets in this stupid old suit
|
And when she sees me she busts out laughing
|
"You're a sad sight honey, but you look so cute" and
|
|
I don't want to be alone anymore
|
I was checking you out
|
I was just making sure
|
No, I don't want to be alone anymore
|
And, I want you tonight
|
Although you hurt me before
|
It didn't matter that I felt like a fool
|
'Cause I forgot when she walked through the door
|
I said I'm sorry, but she said it was cool
|
And I don't want to be alone anymore
|
|
It's so confusing choosing sides
|
In the heat of the moment
|
Just to see if it's real
|
It's so erotic having you
|
Tell me how it should feel
|
But I'm avoiding all the hard cold facts
|
That I've got to face
|
So ask me just one question
|
When this magic night is through
|
Could it have been just anyone
|
Or did it have to be you
|
|
I don't want to be alone anymore
|
I was checking you out
|
I was just making sure
|
No, I don't want to be alone anymore
|
And, I want you tonight
|
Although you hurt me before
|
It didn't matter that I felt like a fool
|
'Cause I forgot when she walked through the door
|
I said I'm sorry, but she said it was cool
|
And I don't want to be alone anymore
|
|
But, don't you know that it's wrong
|
It's wrong, it's wrong...
|
But like the song
|
Being caught by the wink of an eye
|
I can't be sure we'll get along
|
But I'm willing to try
|
As long as you can tell me
|
|
I don't want to be alone anymore
|
I was checking you out
|
I was just making sure
|
|
No, I don't want to be alone anymore
|
And, I want you tonight
|
Although you hurt me before
|
It didn't matter that I felt like a fool
|
'Cause I forgot when she walked through the door
|
I said I'm sorry, but she said it was cool
|
And I don't want to be alone anymore
|
