B F#
When you were lonely, you needed a man

Someone to lean on, well I understand

It's only natural

But why did it have to be me

Nights can be empty, nights can be cold

But why did it have to be me
[Chorus]
E
I was so lonesome, I was blue
B F#7
I couldn't help it, it had to be you and I
B B7
Always thought you knew the reason why
E
I only wanted a little love affair

Now I can see you are beginning to care
B/D# E
But baby, believe me
C#7/F B/F# F#
It's better to forget me
