He was a shy boy when he was at school

It took him years to learn the golden rules

He gets so angry, you see it in his eyes

He has no patience with people telling lies

Who choose to wear the old disguise

I want to live where there's room to breathe

Take one step closer and I'll swear I'll leave alone

Erase the past and never hesitate

Don't leave the light on, don't stay up and wait alone

Alone, alone

Alone, alone, alone, alone, alone

Alone, alone, alone, alone, alone

He was a quiet man who always knew his place

The morning train was a fate he had to face each day

He'd get so lonely, now everybody's gone

He watches from his window as the world moves on, but he'll stay

'Cause it's better that way

He'll say, I want to live where there's room to breathe

Take one step closer and I'll swear I'll leave alone

Alone, alone

Erase the past and never hesitate

Don't leave the light on, don't stay up and wait alone

Alone, alone

Well, I've got the keys and I got the car

Don't make me need you when I've come this far alone

Alone, alone

Alone, alone, alone, alone, alone

Alone, alone, alone, alone, alone

Alone, alone, alone, alone, alone

Alone

Alone

Alone

Alone

Alone

Alone

Alone

Alone
