Ricky: why, why, why
Christina: oh ooh ohh
Ricky: there you are, in a darkened room
And you're all alone, looking out the window
Your heart is cold and lost the will to lovelike a broken arrow
Here i stand in the shadows
Christina: in the shadows
Ricky: come to come, come to me
Both: can't you see that
Nobody wants to be lonely
Nobody wants to cry
My body's longing to hold you
So bad it hurts inside
Time is precious and it's slipping away
And i've been waiting for you all of my life (ohh)
Nobody wants to be lonely
So why (why), why don't you let me love you
Why (ooh ohh yeah), why (oh why), why
Christina: ooh ooh, yeah
Can you hear my voice, do you hear my song
It's a seranade, so your heart can find me, ohh
And suddenly you're flying down the stairsinto my arms, baby, ohh
Ricky: before i start going crazy
Christina: going crazy, ohh
Ricky: run to me
Christina: run to me
Both: cause i'm dying…
Nobody wants to be lonely
Nobody wants to cry (don't wanna cry)
My body's longing to hold you (i'm longing to hold you)
So bad it hurts inside
Time is precious and it's slipping away
And i've been waiting for you all of my life (ohh)

Christina: why, why don't you let me love you
Ricky: i wanna feel you need me
Christina: feel you need me
Ricky: just like the air you're breathing
Christina: breathing, i need you here in my life
