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 apathyI live alone, I live aloneShe was 21
Wishing she'd lived by the sun
The sand and the sea
So I suggested she move out fast
And not be the last
To leave and be freeI live alone, I live alone
I live alone, I live aloneSweet summer day
I'm so afraid so take me awayWe were 17
Longing to live in between
The earth and the stars
So I suggested we grow up fast
And not be the last
But look where we areWith 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 yearsI live alone, I live alone
(Come, take me away)
I live alone, I live alone
