| Break down
|
| To a private world
|
| To a private world
|
| Well, I just lost a lover
|
| Who done found someone else
|
| I get cool and lonesome feelin' sorry for myself
|
| I need a private world
|
| A private world
|
| Oh, you call that drownin' in a sea of dreams
|
| How could it last, I’m tryin' hard not to scream
|
| Private world
|
| Oh, a private world
|
| Oh, the joint starts shakin', it’s ready to crumble
|
| The boys all dukin', lookin' for a rumble
|
| Need a private world
|
| I need a private world
|
| One that is movin'
|
| At least I’m movin'
|
| (Better shut that door)
|
| Private world
|
| Private girl
|
| Private world
|
| (You should keep it confidential)
|
| Private world
|
| Oh, oh, oh private world
|
| Oh, you know I want some money, she replies
|
| When uptown comes downtown, better take her for a ride
|
| Into the private world
|
| I think it’s a private world
|
| Ooh, baby call, call my name
|
| I’m tryin' to explain that I’m not the same
|
| In a private world
|
| Ooh, a private world
|
| Well, I just lost a lover who done found someone else
|
| 'Cause I get cool and lonely feelin' sorry for myself
|
| I need a private world
|
| Oh, a private world
|
| One that is movin'
|
| At least I’m movin'
|
| (Shut that door)
|
| Private world
|
| Private girl
|
| Private girl, you better keep it confidential
|

|
| And dry those tears from your eyes
