If You Think You're Lonely Now Lyrics - Poet I & Ii - Bobby Womack

I wanna dedicate this song to all the lovers tonight 

And I expect that might be the whole world 

Because everybody needs something or someone to love 

When it's cold outside who are you holding? 

You know, if y'all don't mind I'd like to talk about this woman of mine 

She's always complainin' 'bout me never bein' at home 

But when I'm there I'm broke 

She's tellin' me about the things that her girlfriend's got 

What she ain't got and she wants me to go out and get 'em for her 

But girl, I can't be in two places at one time 

If you think you're lonely now, huh 

Wait until tonight, girl 

(If you think you're lonely now) 

I'll be loooong gone 

(Wait until tonight, girl) 

And you'll find another man that'll treat you right

(If you think you're lonely now) 

When I ain't there to rub your back 

(Wait until tonight, girl) 

Just remember I made it a known fact 

And the skeletons come out of the closet 

And chase you all around your room 

And the memories sail 'round like a ghost 

And dance around to a sad slow tune, ah 

If you think you're lonely now 

(If you think you're lonely now) 

Oh, wait until tonight 

(Wait until tonight, girl) 

I'll be loooong gone 

(If you think you're lonely now) 

And you'll never find another man that'll treat you right 

(You just wait until tonight, girl)

(If you think you're lonely now) 

You think you're lonely now 

(Wait until tonight, girl) 

Wait, wait, wait until tonight, girl 

Oh, ain't it funny how the tables turn 

When things aren't goin' your way? 

But when love walks out and the pain walks in 

And settles for a stay, ooh 

(If you think you're lonely now) 

Lord, help me, I feel like I wanna testify 

(Wait until tonight, girl) 

(If you think you're lonely now) 

Girl, wait until tonight 

(Wait until tonight, girl) 

If you think you're lonely, lonely, lonely now 

(If you think you're lonely now) 

(Wait until tonight, girl) 

Oh, you just wait until tonight, girl 

(If you think you're lonely now) 

(Wait until tonight, girl) 

You see the night's the time when the needs come out 

When your needs come out to breathe 

And the jonesing starts and there ain't no way you can sleep, ooh 

(If you think you're lonely now) 

If you think you're lonely now 

(Wait until tonight, girl) 

I feel like I wanna testify this evenin' 

(If you think you're lonely now) 

I'm lonely, 'cause I know I gotta leave you, oh, girl 

(Wait until tonight, girl) 

I just can't take no more 

(If you think you're lonely now) 

Ooh, hoo, hoo 

(You just wait until tonight, girl) 

Ah, girl, you just wait 

(If you think you're lonely now) 

If you think you got problems now, baby, you just wait 

(Wait until tonight, girl) 

Wait 

(If you think you're lonely now) 

Too far gone 

(Wait until tonight, girl) 

Like you're runnin' out 

(If you think you're lonely now) 

Ooh, hoo, ooh, hoo, babe 

(Wait until tonight, girl) 

You say you're a little lonely 

(If you think you're lonely now) 

But everybody needs somebody to love 

(Wait until tonight, girl) 

(If you think you're lonely now) 

It's good that you know that you got somebody that'll stand by your side 

That'll build you up when you're fallin' down 

(Wait until tonight, girl) 

And you had that someone, baby 

(If you think you're lonely now) 

'Cause I've done my time 

(Wait until tonight, girl) 

And it's your turn now 

(If you think you're lonely now) 

If you think you're looonely now 

(Wait until tonight, girl) 

Wait, wait until tonight 

(If you think you're lonely now) 

I'm tired, tired of this same old stuck in the hour 

(Wait until tonight, girl) 

It's been too long 

(If you think you're lonely now) 

You think, you could start all over again, it's been too long 

(Wait until tonight, girl) 

You think you could start it just one more time 

(If you think you're lonely now)
