Hello alone, it's you and me again
|
How can we pretend we've never met
|
Hello alone, you might as well come in
|
We've been making beds for so long now
|
|
I never told you that I want you
|
I thought I had you out of my head
|
But every time she leaves me
|
Refusing to believe me
|
You're always there
|
And even though I don't invite you
|
And your presence is a pain
|
You always let me be just who I am
|
Until I'm glad to bring back that refrain again
|
|
Hello alone, it's you and me again
|
How can we pretend we've never met
|
Hello alone, you might as well come in
|
We've been shaking hands for too long now
|
|
I even tried to re-convince you
|
But it was just no use at all
|
'Cause every time I climbed inside your mind
|
I saw the mirror on the wall
|
But it's no use to pose the question
|
When the answer's never 'she'
|
And then I have to face up to the facts
|
With saxophones and old trombones
|
Carrying me home to say
|
|
Hello alone, it's you and me again
|
How can we pretend we've never met
|
Hello alone, you might as well come in
|
We've been making beds for too long
|
|
Perhaps I'll take a holiday
|
And get as far away as I can
|
But then I'd just be far away
|
And just as much a lonesome man
|
With his head in his hands
|
And chanting
|
|
Hello alone, it's you and me again
|
How can we pretend we've never met
|
Hello alone, you might as well come in
|
We've been making beds for too long now
|
Oh oh, we've been making friends for so long now
|
Hey hey, we've been shaking hands for so long, so long now
|
