Verse 1:
I talk to you every now and then
I never felt so alone again
I stop to think at a wishing well
My thoughts send me on a carousel
Here I am standing on my own
Not a motion from the telephone
I know not a reason why
Solitudes a reason to die

It is a woken dream
Aren t you feeling alone?

another night alone

Verse 2:
Now as I walk down the street
I need a job just to sleep in sheets
Buying food every once in a while

I talk to you every now and then
I never felt so alone again
