When You’re Alone

Jerry Butler, Leon Huff, Kenneth Gamble, Gamble & Huff

When you're all alone and you’re waiting
When you're all alone and you're waiting
When you’re alone
Waiting for the one you love
When you're all alone and you're waiting
When you're all alone and you're waiting

The telephone rings
Lose your heart strings
You run and pick it up (pick it up)
Wrong number (wrong number)
Ain't ya sorry? (ain't ya sorry?)
You see a car
Oops, it went too far
Wrong car, wrong driver
Ain't ya sorry?

Gee, ain’t it strange
How sounds can let you down (they really let you down)
And the girl you’ve been loving
Ain't nowhere to be found

Cuz when you’re alone
Waiting for the one you love
When you're all alone and you're waiting
When you're all alone and you’re waiting
Oh, when you're alone
Waiting for the one you love
When you're all alone and you're waiting
When you're all alone and you're waiting

You hear footsteps down the hall
You run to the door
Ain't nobody in there (nobody)
Ain't ya sorry (ain't ya sorry?)
You're pulling out ya hair
Cuz there's the lady going up the stairs
With the groceries, oh lord, ain't ya sorry?

Gee, ain't it strange
How sounds can let you down (they really let you down)
And the girl you've been loving
Ain't nowhere around

When you're alone
Waiting for the one you love
When you're all alone and you're waiting (Oh, baby)
When you're all alone and you're waiting
When you're alone, yeah
Waiting for the one you love
When you're all alone and you're waiting
When you're all alone and you're waiting
Don't ya want to call in sick?
When you're alone
