Eric Clapton - Don't Let Me Be Lonely Tonight Lyrics






Do me wrong, do me right, do me right baby.
Tell me lies but hold, hold me tight.
Save your goodbyes till the morning light,
But don't let me be lonely tonight.

Say goodbye, woman say hello, say hello.
It's sure enough good to see you, but it's time to go,
And don't say yes, but please don't say no.
I don't want to be lonely tonight.

Go away then, damn you, go on and do as you please, do as you please,
But you ain't going to see me getting down on my knees,
'Cause I'm undecided and your heart's been divided.
You've been turning my world upside down.

Do me wrong, do me right, do me right baby.
Go on and tell me lies but hold, hold me tight.
And save your goodbyes till the morning light,
But don't let me be lonely tonight.

Save your goodbyes till the morning light,
But don't let me be lonely tonight.
'Cause I don't want to be lonely tonight.

I don't want to be lonely.
Don't do it, don't do it, don't do it, don't do it.

    Ace Spectrum as well

    I.... !....

    ImTheMan78 ! Check out Boney James & Kermit Quinn’s version

  22. H.... A....

    In my opinion, this is the best cover of this song which originally belongs to James Taylor.

    Great for Eric Clapton!

  31. c.... y....

    soulfulll

  32. D.... V....

    clapton is able to put the emotions in the strings here. what a gifted musician he was and is

  33. M.... G....

    That note at 3:25...chills...

  34. G.... F....

    this version is the same of The Isley Brothers.

    M.... D....

    Could not agree more, Marc!

  42. D.... ....

    I'm an EC fan but JT's is my favourite version.

  43. c.... a....

    I like James Taylor, BUT he doesn't even compare to this. So good.But it is EC, so that goes without saying...

    c.... a....

    JT version is more heartfelt imo

    c.... a....

    Gotta cast another vote for this version.

  44. T.... D....

    T.... D....

  45. f.... ....

    Best thing about music. Everybody has there favorite version. This happens to be mine. Yours may vary.

    f.... ....

    mine too...

    f.... ....

    Mine too

  46. L.... A....

    adoroooooooooo essa música

  47. F.... ....

    James Taylor still did it best.

    F.... ....

    Frith no

    F.... ....

    No way ... Clapton Is The boss aguante Clapton gringo careta

    F.... ....

    Everyone has their opinion. I always liked J.T. They are two different versions ! E.C. puts more emotion into his singing !

    F.... ....

    Exactly

    F.... ....

    @Peter Iacontino I wouldn't say he puts more emotion. He just sings in a way that most people perceive as more emotional. J.T. delivers emotions that go beyond just pure guttural sorrow, his version warms the heart in a reassuring way and the emotions that are passed on through his singing are very subtle. E.C. hits you with a lot of one emotion, whereas J.T. gives you a lot of different emotions in a gentle way. But again, just my opinion

  48. A.... M....

    looooooooooooveeeeeeeee !!! EC forever !!!!

  49. J.... L....

    better than the original for me and I love isley brothers

  50. A.... H....

  62. k.... ....

    Best version of this song, by anyone. Those high notes he hits give chills.

    I'm going to have to disagree. George Benson's is much better, and I say that as a fan of Clapton.
