John Mayer Perfectly Lonely
Songwriters: Mayer, John Clayton;Had a little love, but I spread it thin
Falling in her arms and out again
Made a bad name for my game 'round town
Tore out my heart, shut it down
Nothing to do, nowhere to be
A simple little kind of free
Nothing to do, no one but me
And that's all I need
I'm perfectly lonely
I'm perfectly lonely
I'm perfectly lonely, yeah
'Cause I don't belong to anyone, nobody belongs to me
I see my friends around from time to time
When their ladies let 'em slip away
And when they ask me how I'm doin' with mine
This is always what I say
Nothing to do, nowhere to be
A simple little kind of free
Nothing to do, no one to be
Is it really hard to see why
I'm perfectly lonely
I'm perfectly lonely
I'm perfectly lonely, yeah
'Cause I don't belong to anyone, nobody belongs to me
And this is not to say there never comes a day
I'll take my chances and start again
And when I look behind on all my younger times
I'll have to thank the wrongs that led me to a love so strong
I'm perfectly lonely
I'm perfectly lonely
I'm perfectly lonely, yeah
'Cause I don't belong to anyone, and nobody belongs to me
That's the way, that's the way, that's the way that I want it
That's the way, that's the way, that's the way that I want it
That's the way, that's the way, that's the way that I want it
That's the way, that's the way, that's the way that I want it
