(bob mcdill/dickie lee/bucky jones) I'll bet that you're surpised to see me Wonder what i'm doing at your door But you can't be more surprised than i am I thought i didn't need you anymore Thought there was something waiting out there Something i wanted but now it's so clear Baby it's a cold, cold world Out here tonight It's nothing at all like i thought i'd find So if you wonder why i'm standing here I'm a little long on lonely, a little short on pride If you slam the door, i wouldn't blame you
You've got every reason to turn me down I was so sure i had the answers After what i've been through, i'm not sure now I won't say i love you, don't know if it's true I will say i need you, god knows i do Baby it's a cold, cold world Out here tonight It's nothing at all like i thought i'd find So if you wonder why i'm standing here I'm a little long on lonely, a little short on pride I'm a little long on lonely, a little short on pride
