I Live Alone Lyrics

I was 22, alone
With nothing to do
And I couldn't sleep
'Cause all those cold days
Returned with their old ways of causing
New apathy

I live alone, I live alone

She was 21, wishing she lived by the sun, the sand and the sea
So I suggested she'd move out fast and not be the last
To leave and be free

I live alone, I live alone
I live alone, I live alone

Sweet summer day
I'm so afraid
So take me away

We were 17, longing to live in between
The earth and the stars
So I suggested we'd grow up fast and not be the last
And look where we are
With no connection I saw your reflection at home
In my bedroom mirror
And I felt young again when I saw what we could've been
In all of those years

I live alone, I live alone
I live alone, I live alone
