Candi Staton Follow

You were only fifteen, living life by the mile
We lay under the stars fell asleep in your backyard
You said you could fly but you'd never need to
'Cause with us you never try too hard and you never will

On a lonely night, you will see
You're everything to me
(You got everything)
On a lonely night, oh, the truth is
Every night is lonely without you
Every night is lonely without you here

We are older now and you came back to Ohio
You whispered something to me I haven't heard in a while
I wish I could lie and just tell you I'm fine
You wouldn't believe me if you tried
If I listen to our song I'll be up all night

On a lonely night, you will see
You're everything to me
(You got everything)
On a lonely night, oh, the truth is
Every night is lonely without you
Every night is lonely without you here

It's been forever, but lately, it's been hard
Like when we took your parents' car
And drove forever in the dark

I'd give it all away
If I could see you once again
And have a summer love
Growing close, we'll never grow up

On a lonely night, you will see
You're everything to me
(You got everything)
On a lonely night, oh, the truth is
Every night is lonely without you
Every night is lonely without you here

And every guy would be lonely without you there
