Alone - Sandi Thom

I hear the ticking of the clock

I’m lying here, the room’s pitch dark

I wonder where you are tonight

No answer on the telephone

And the night goes by so very slow

Oh, I hope that it won’t end though

Alone

I always fared well on my own

I never really cared until I met you

And now it chills me to the bone

How do I get you alone?

You don’t know how long I have wanted

To touch your lips and hold you tight

You don’t know how long I have waited

And I was going to tell you tonight

But the secret is still my own

And my love for you is still unknown

Alone

I always fared well on my own

I never really cared until I met you

And now it chills me to the bone

How do I get you alone?

Tell me, how do I get you alone?

How do I get you alone?

Tell me, how do I get you alone?

Alone, alone

I hear the ticking of the clock

I’m lying here, the room’s pitch dark
