Jill Scott - Whenever You're Around lyrics

(feat. George Duke)

[Intro:]

Hey

Mmmm hmmm,

Listen to me,listen to me,listen to me,

listen to me

Listen to me,listen to me,listen to me,listen...

I've been talking to this man

He's been saying what I like and

He makes me smile,

When I'm down,so down

He says sweet things in my ear

All the things that I needed to hear

But that's as far as it's gone

I promise,I promise

But I enjoy it,I love it so

Cause it seems like I'm always alone

You're at arms reach

But baby,

Where are you?

Where are you?

Cause I got this fire

Sweet and true

But I'm cold as ice around you

[Chorus:]

Cause I'm lonely

Whenever you're around

Cause I'm lonely

Whenever you're around

[Instrumental Break]

Whoa,whoa,whoa

What happened to the wonderful thing

we had

It seems like you're missing in action

And I'm tired,I'm tired

I'm tired,I'm tired,I'm tired,I'm tired

I don't wanna lose this good life

But I ain't scared

If I'm going to be the only one participating

in this

[Chorus]
