When you're talking to yourself, and nobody's home

You can fool yourself, you came in this world alone

Alone

So nobody ever told you, baby, how it was gonna be

So what'll happen to you, baby? Guess we'll have to wait and see

Old at heart, but I'm only twenty-eight

I'm much too young to let love break my heart

Young at heart, but it's getting much too late

To find ourselves so far apart

I don't know how you're supposed to find me lately

And what more could you ask from me?

How could you say that I never needed you?

When you took everything, said, you took everything from me

Young at heart, and it gets so hard to wait

When no one I know can seem to help me now

Old at heart, but I mustn't hesitate

If I'm to find my own way out

Talking to myself, and nobody's home

Talking to myself, and nobody's home

So nobody ever told you, baby, how it was gonna be

So what'll happen to you, baby? Guess we'll have to wait and see

When I find out all the reasons, maybe I'll find another way

Find another day

With all the changing seasons of my life

Maybe I'll get it right next time

Now that you've been broken down. got your head out of the clouds

You're back down on the ground, and you don't talk so loud

You don't walk so proud anymore, what for?

Well, I jumped into the river, too many times to make it home

I'm out here on my own, and drifting all alone

If it doesn't show, give it time to read between the lines

'Cause I see the storm's getting closer

And the waves they get so high

Seems everything we've ever known's here

Why must it drift away and die?
