Alone with Myself

I'm falling asleep while you read me a book

And I'm drifting away to the sound

All the people are laughing as you take my hand

Now we're standing alone in the crowd

But I wanted to be alone

And you wanted to be my friend

You said you wanted to belong

To somebody's heart again

So I'll hold my breath til you come back around

Tell me that you're here to stay

When the sun blinds my eyes I will follow your voice

Through the rain I'll still travel your way

But I wanted to be alone

And you wanted to be my friend

You said you wanted to belong

To somebody's heart again

You had found me struggling

Life had found me til you let me in

Now I can see everything

And I can be alone with myself

The silence that followed the night you came back

You said all you wanted to say

Won't you tell me the story of when we were young

Take my hand and we'll both run away

But I wanted to be alone

And you wanted to be my friend

You said you wanted to belong

To somebody's heart again

I'm falling asleep while you read me a book

And I'm drifting away to the sound

All the people are laughing as you take my hand

Now we're standing alone in the crowd

But I wanted to be alone

And you wanted to be my friend

You said you wanted to belong

To somebody's heart again

You had found me struggling

Life had found me til you let me in

Now I can see everything

And I can be alone with myself
