lonely
Jonas Brothers Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Wanna ride with you 'til the wheels fall off
'Til we're running out of road
Wanna dance with you 'til the music stops
'Til we got no place to go

Everybody needs a place to hide
This don't have to be a bumpy ride
I think we should be alone tonight
'Cause we don't have to be lonely
Everybody needs some company
Let's talk about it over one more drink
I think you should be alone with me
'Cause we don't have to be lonely

We don't have to be lonely (lonely)
(Hey) lonely, lonely
Don't have to be lonely, lonely (lonely)
Don't have to be lonely
Don't have to be lonely

Wanna ride with you 'til the world stands still
Like with no one else but us
Wanna dance with you 'til we can't stand up
'Til we both give into love

Everybody needs a place to hide
This don't have to be a bumpy ride
I think we should be alone tonight
'Cause we don't have to be lonely
Everybody needs some company
Let's talk about it over one more drink
I think you should be alone with me
'Cause we don't have to be lonely
We don't have to be lonely (lonely)
Don't have to be lonely (lonely)
Don't have to be lonely (lonely)
Don't have to be
We don't have to be lonely

Wanna ride with you 'til the wheels fall off
'Til we're running out of road
