All Alone

You’re lying up there,

I’m sitting down here,

(All alone).

Like two satellites,

That pass in the night,

(All alone).

Where once we were one,

Now you say we are done,

(All alone).

I climb to the top of the stairs,

At the end of the night,

And listen outside our door.

You’re crying to yourself,

I know you don’t want me,

Lying next to you anymore.

Slowly I creep back downstairs,

To my nightly silent vigil,

In front of the TV set.

Laughing faces there taunting me,

As I drain from the glass,

Hoping at the bottom I’ll forget.

You’re lying up there,

I’m sitting down here,

(All alone).

Like two satellites,

That pass in the night,

(All alone).

Where once we were one,

Now you say we are done,

(All alone).

Remember it wasn’t always like this,

The good time when we laughed,

Young lovers our bodies entwined.

We’d dance to each others tune,

Talk until the morning sun,

Back when you were mine.

Remember the evenings we’d drive,

To the top of Harshill bank,

And sit in the backseat of your car.

Two young lovers all alone,

We didn’t need no one else,

As we lay beneath the stars.

You’re lying up there,

I’m sitting down here,

(All alone).

Like two satellites,

That pass in the night,

(All alone).

Where once we were one,

Now you say we are done,

(All alone).

Now the sun is rising,

The dawn chorus begins to sing,

Heralding in another lonely day,

Where we’ll dance our dance,

Together but on our own,

Talking but with nothing left to say.
