I was sixteen met you out in Ohio
You were only fifteen living life by the mile
We laid under the stars
Fell asleep in your backyard
You said you could fly
But you never need to
Cause with us you never tried too hard
And you never will
On a lonely night you will see
You’re everything to me (you got everything)
On a lonely night oh the truth is
Every night is lonely without you
Every night is lonely without you here
We are older now
And you came back to Ohio
You whispered something to me
I haven’t heard in a while
I wish I could lie
And just tell you I’m fine
You wouldn’t believe me if you tried
If I listen to our song I’ll be up all night
On a lonely night you will see
You’re everything to me (you got everything)
On a lonely night oh the truth is
Every night is lonely without you
Every night is lonely without you here
It’s been forever, but lately it’s been hard
Like when we took your parent’s car
And drove forever in the dark
I’d give it all away if I could I see you
Once again and have a summer love
Growing close and never grow up
On a lonely night you will see
You’re everything to me (you got everything)
On a lonely night oh the truth is
Every night is lonely without you
Every night is lonely without you here
Every guy would be lonely without you there
