You're waiting for someone
But someone doesn't show
You light a cigarette
You think she should have let you know
You don't recognize a sole
You sipp your beer and watch the wall
But then the curtains rise
And suddenly you find you fall
You're never lonely when the band plays
When the first snow hits your spine
And you're washed over by the sound waves
You're not alone when you're alive
And then you're on the street
You breath the midnight air
You light a cigarette
You're far away and yet you're there
Though someone never came
You tremble and you spark
It feels a bit like love
It's keeping you above the dark
You're never lonely when the band plays
When the first snow hits your spine
And you're washed over by the sound waves
You're not alone when you're alive
Like you I'm aching to belong
And while we're waiting here's a song
A hope it helps us when we're going home
You're never lonely when the band plays
When the first snow hits your spine
And you're washed over by the sound waves
You're not alone when you're alive
You're never lonely when the band plays
Playing straight into your mind
And then you know you're on the right way
You're not alone when you're alive
