Lonely Lyrics by Ne-Yo

In My Own Words (Japan Limited Edition)

0

[Verse 1]
42nd Street, 4AM
I'm rolling slowly; no destination in mind
Driver's looking at me strange cause I got in
Handed him a wad of cash
Sat back and told him just drive
I'm thinking 'bout the day (you packed your things and left)
Saying you knew all Shanelle (Tiffany, Tracey, Stephanie)
You went away, so I'm writing in the fog up on the window
To express myself and how I'm feelin'

[Hook]
Y.L.E.N.O.L
As I roll past you in this taxi cab
If you care at all, that means I'm lonely
Y.L.E.N.O.L
As I roll past you in this taxi cab
If you care at all, that means I'm lonely

[Verse 2]
I see a woman walking with her man (man)
Man with his woman smiling as they stroll into this little bar (bar)
As they kiss each other holding hands
I get sick to my stomach
So jealous of how happy they are (lucky)
There's a couple different people I could call right now
But the one I want and don't want me at all right now
And that hurts
Through my heart, my mind and my soul (soul)
Rolling in this cam, writing on the window singing why

[Hook]
Y.L.E.N.O.L (O.L)
As I roll past you (past you) in this taxi cab (taxi cab)
If you care at all, that means I'm lonely
Y. L. E. N. O. L
As I roll past you in this taxi cab
If you care at all, that means I'm lonely

[Bridge]
(Ha ha ooo) What am I suppose to do now?
Rolling round feeling like a fool now
Crying like a bitch in the back of this taxi cab
So stupid
Driver tried to ask if I'm alright
I say "Nevermind, mind your business and just drive dammit
You don't know nothing about
How I feel right now
Let me spell it out..."

[Hook until fade]
Y. L. E. N. O. L
As I rode past you in this taxi cab
If you care at all, that means I'm lonely
Y. L. E. N. O. L
As I rode past you in this taxi cab
If you care at all, that means I'm lonely
