it's gonna be lonely

We've been 2gether 4 quite some time
I'd think by now U'd know
It'll take 4ever 2 get U off my mind
If ever U decide 2 go
I guess I got a little insecurity
When it's concerning U
I guess I'm just afraid that if U ever leave
I'd be in a messed-up state of blue

And I'd be so lonely
Without U loving me, I know it's gonna be lonely
Without U giving me every little single thing that I need
Lonely

Whatever's in your kiss, it really turns me on
Till I go right out of my mind
And who could ever resist your accent from gay Paree
It gets me every time
I betcha thatcha never knew that in my dreams
U are the star
The only bummer is that U always want 2 leave
Who do U think U are?

Don't U know it's gonna be lonely?
Without U loving me, I know it's gonna be lonely
Without U giving me every little single thing that I need
Lonely

It's gonna be lonely
Without U loving me, giving me everything that I need
Oh pretty baby, can't U see it's gonna be lonely?

Without U loving me
I know, I know it's gonna be lonely

Oh, whatever's in your kiss
I never could resist
Oh baby, don't go!

We've been 2gether 4 quite some time
It would take 4ever 2 get U off my mind
Oh girl!

Without U loving me
I know it's gonna be lonely

Without U by my side
Don't U know that I could die, baby?

Without U loving me
Can't U see it's gonna be lonely?

It's gonna be lonely, baby
So lonely, baby

agreed.

'It's Gonna Be Lonely' would have been Prince's best ballad up until 'The Beautiful Ones' had 'Do Me, Baby' not got in the way.

someone just had to mention "adore", didn't they? lol

as for "it's gonna be lonely"...that song is the ultra-hottness. every last bit of it is awesome...even prince's cheesy faux-french accent gets props.

your accent from gay pa-ree geek

It certainly is going to be lonely for me. I just messed up big time and now have lost the love of my life. I'm devasted. I can't even listen to any music at the moment because it's all too raw for me. Can't even listen to any Prince music at the moment.
Here's some advice for the guys out there:
If you have a woman don't let her go, and make sure you tell her how much she means to you. And remember the grass is NEVER greener on the other side!

LOVE THIS SONG!! I'm glad to see that others appreciate this gem too. The music is intoxicating,and you gotta love the lyrics...

"Who could ever resist your accent from gay Paree?
It gets me everytime"

The 'Prince' album is a masterpiece.It perfectly captures the spirit of young love like no other Prince album.
