Only Words

I called you yesterday
Ringin' you again and again
Are you home today?
You're makin' me a little nervous
It's getting hard to take
Are you real or fake?
There's little time awake
When I give you take
If your just playin' around
As I've said many times
I'll walk out the door
And you'll be all alone
These are the words of a desperate man who
Can't be on his own without you
It's just being around
That makes my day
You walk in the door
I stop feeling alone
These are the words of a desperate man who
Can't be on his own without you
