Lyrics:
My whole life was all about
tryin’ not to be alone
the human touch to keep me warm
any port in any storm.
But I had to
learn to be alone
I had to learn to be alone
to be alone.You spoke softly in my ear
you said, “two hearts are better than oneâ€
two lives, one bed, thirteen years
gone away and disappeared.
And I had to
learn to be alone
I had to learn to to be alone
to be alone.I heard it said, and I believe it’s true
we all got it comin’, and when we do
we’re all gonna be… alone.Go run around, see what you get
you’ll be runnin’ ‘till the day you die
down the road you’ll only be known
for leavin’ a good love behind.
And you’ll never
learn to be alone
you’ll never learn to be alone
to be alone…..
