another day has gone i'm still all alone how could this be you're not here with me you never said goodbye someone tell me why did you have to go and leave my world so cold everyday i sit and ask myself how did love slip away something whispers in my ear and says that you are not alonefor i am here with you though you're far away i am here to stay you are not alone i am here with you though we're far apart you're always in my heart you are not alone all alone why, oh just the other night i thought i heard you cry asking me to come and hold you in my arms i can hear your prayers your burdens i will bear but first i need your hand so forever can begin everyday i sit and ask myself how did love slip away then something whispers in my ear and says that you are not alone for i am here with you though you're far away i am here to stay for you are not alone i am here with you though we're far apart you're always in my heart and you are not alone oh...whisper three words and i'll come runnin'fly...and girl you know that i'll be there i'll be there you are not alone

It's safe in the city, to love in a doorway To wrangle some screams from the dawn And isn't it me, putting pain in a stranger? Like a portrait in flesh, who trails on a leash Will you see that I'm scared and I'm lonely? So I'll break up my room, and yawn and I Run to the centre of things Where the knowing one says CHORUS Boys, boys, its a sweet thing Boys, boys, its a sweet thing, sweet thing If you want it, boys, get it here, thing 'Cause hope, boys, is a cheap thing, cheap thing I'm glad that you're older than me Makes me feel important and free Does that make you smile, isn't that me? I'm in your way, and I'll steal every moment If this trade is a curse, then I'll bless you And turn to the crossroads of Hamburg, as in CHORUS
