All by Myself
Solitary Yearning: Bing Crosby's Heartfelt Plea for Connection
Lyrics
I'm so unhappy
I'm experiencing a deep sense of unhappiness.
What'll I do?
I'm uncertain about what actions to take in my current situation.
I long for somebody who
I have a strong desire for someone who...
Will sympathize with me
...will show understanding and empathy towards my feelings.
I'm growing so tired of living alone
I'm becoming weary of living a solitary life.
I lie awake all night and cry
I spend my nights sleepless, crying and troubled.
Nobody loves me
I feel unloved by others.
That's why
This lack of love is the reason for my unhappiness.
All by myself in the morning
I find myself alone in the morning.
All by myself in the night
The solitude continues into the night.
I sit alone with a table and a chair
I am seated in isolation with only a table and a chair.
So unhappy there
I feel profound unhappiness in this solitary space.
Playing solitaire
I engage in the game of solitaire, a solitary activity.
All by myself I get lonely
Being alone, I experience feelings of loneliness.
Watching the clock on the shelf
I pass the time watching the clock, emphasizing the passing of time.
I'd love to rest my weary head on somebody's shoulder
I desire the comfort of resting my head on someone's shoulder.
I hate to grow older
I dislike the process of aging and growing older alone.
All by myself
I find myself in this state of solitude.
