Alone So Far Lyrics


I watch, as it stops for a girl
A moment, elaborate and weak
I am easy in her midst
Why elaborate, when there's no need to?But I do, all night
My words ring like money off a bar
She's here, asleep now
One can only go alone so far
One can only go alone so farI dream of a deep dark grave
Seven feet below Saint Augustine
And she's so easy in her breathing
Why fall in love, when there's no need to?But we do all night
Sleep like spoons and forget whom we are
She's here and she's wound down now
One can only go alone so far
One can only go alone so far

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
