  • Well, I feel all right when it comes daylight
    But when it comes the night
    I am only lonely, I am only lonely

    And if it doesn't feel right when I hold you tight
    Oh baby, it's all right - I am only lonely
    Oh baby, wonder if we could get involved
    Oh baby, wonder if we could get involved

    And if it doesn't feel right when it comes daylight
    But when it comes the night, I am only lonely

    He said, "Come on, baby, not on the first date."
    So I said, "Okay, baby, how long must I wait?"

    And if it doesn't feel right when it comes daylight
    But when it comes the night, I am only lonely

    And if it doesn't feel right when I hold you tight
    I am only lonely

    Wonder could we get involved Writer/s: Christina Amphlett, Mark McEntee
