When I'm alone The words tripped off his tongue As though to be alone Was nothing strange When I was young He said when I was young I was buried by the names That I was called I thought of age Of loneliness and change And how strange we grow When we are alone And how unlike The selves that meet and talk And blow the candles out and say goodnight And I don't think I'll stay for long 'Ause I will go where I am not alone And on the day when I'll be gone You'll know that I will be where I am not alone Oh I will be where I am not alone When I'm too small He looked at me and smiled As though to be too small Was nothing sad What does it mean HE said tell me what it means To feel someting That makesthe others leave I think of friends Of family and home And how things could be If I was not so strange And what it's like To sit by the fireplace Together In the cold winter nights And I don't think I'll stay for long 'Ause I will go where I am not alone And on the day when I'll be gone You'll know that I will be where I am not alone Oh I will be where I am not alone In the stillness Where our spirits walk All but immost love Is overthrown And I don't think I'll stay for long 'Ause I will go where I am not alone And on the day when I'll be gone You'll know that I will be where I am not alone Oh I will be where I am not alone Oh I will be where I am not alone Oh I will be where I am not alone
