Alone
Eternal Longing: Cosmic Gate's 'Alone' Unveils a Heartfelt Odyssey
Lyrics
Can't breathe 'cause you're like a wave crashing down on me
Feeling overwhelmed and suffocated due to the intense emotions represented by a crashing wave.
You leave and every single step takes a part of me
Experiencing a sense of loss with each step taken when the person departs.
Your love is a mark on my history
Expressing that the love shared has left a lasting impact on personal history.
When you leave every single step takes a part of me
Reiterating the emotional toll of the person's departure on each step taken.
Oh oh, oh oh
Repetition of vocalizations ('Oh oh') conveying a strong emotional response.
Oh oh, oh oh
-Oh oh, oh oh
-Oh oh, oh oh
-Slow down, can you feel this place here is holy ground?
Describing the environment as sacred or special, urging the person to slow down and recognize its significance.
Don't know who I'm gonna be if you're not around
Expressing uncertainty about one's identity in the absence of the person.
Your love is the best that I ever found
Affirming the exceptional nature of the person's love.
Don't know who I'm gonna be if you're not around
Reiterating the impact of the person's absence on personal identity.
I don't wanna meet somebody new
Declining the idea of forming new connections, possibly due to lingering feelings for the person.
I'm not gonna start getting over you
Commitment to not moving on from the person.
If you won't take me home I'll be alone, be alone
Expressing a willingness to be alone if the person doesn't reciprocate the desire to go home together.
'Cause you're the only one that's on my mind
Affirming that the person is the only one occupying the thoughts.
And other things are a waste of time
Considering other activities or relationships as a waste of time compared to thoughts of the person.
If you won't take me home I'll be alone, be alone
Reiterating the willingness to be alone if not going home with the person.
Oh oh, oh oh
Repetition of vocalizations ('Oh oh') emphasizing the emotional state.
Oh oh, oh oh
