You said 'yes' when I asked if you were taken
Something in your voice said you wanted to say 'no'
And when I held you close on that slow dance
You were shakin'
So if you decide to leave you need to know
You won't be lonely for long
If he should ever do you wrong
Just let me know, girl, when he's gone
You won't be lonely for long
Thanks for the beer and, here, let me give you my number
Well if you're buying, I guess I could sit down and have one more
I don't know what kind of a blind spell you got me under
But you're making me say things that I've never said before
You won't be lonely for long
If he should ever do you wrong
Just let me know, girl, when he's gone
You won't be lonely for long
So goodnight girl
I've gotta go
Just remember if you decide to leave, let me know
You won't be lonely for long
If he should ever do you wrong
Just let me know, girl, when he's gone
You won't be lonely for long
