(feat. George Duke)

[Intro:]
|
Hey
|
Mmmm hmmm,
|
Listen to me,listen to me,listen to me,
|
listen to me
|
Listen to me,listen to me,listen to me,listen...
|
|
I've been talking to this man
|
He's been saying what I like and
|
He makes me smile,
|
When I'm down,so down
|
|
He says sweet things in my ear
|
All the things that I needed to hear
|
But that's as far as it's gone
|
I promise,I promise
|
|
But I enjoy it,I love it so
|
Cause it seems like I'm always alone
|
You're at arms reach
|
But baby,
|
Where are you?
|
Where are you?
|
|
Cause I got this fire
|
Sweet and true
|
But I'm cold as ice around you
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Cause I'm lonely
|
Whenever you're around
|
Cause I'm lonely
|
Whenever you're around
|
|
[Instrumental Break]
|
|
Whoa,whoa,whoa
|
What happened to the wonderful thing
|
we had
|
It seems like you're missing in action
|
And I'm tired,I'm tired
|
I'm tired,I'm tired,I'm tired,I'm tired
|
|
I don't wanna lose this good life
|
But I ain't scared
|
If I'm going to be the only one participating
|
in this
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|

Whenever You're Around
