Alone
Yearning in Solitude: Unveiling the Emotions Behind 'Alone'
Lyrics
I hear the ticking of the clock
I am aware of the passage of time.
I'm lying here the room's pitch dark
I am in a completely dark room.
I wonder where you are tonight
I am curious about your current whereabouts.
No answer on the telephone
There is no response when I call you.
And the night goes by so very slow
The night is progressing very slowly.
Oh I hope that it won't end though
I hope this moment doesn't come to an end.
Alone
I am alone.
Till now I always got by on my own
Until now, I managed on my own.
I never really cared until I met you
I never truly cared until I encountered you.
And now it chills me to the bone
Now, the thought of being alone is frightening.
How do I get you alone
How can I be with you?
How do I get you alone
Reiteration of the desire to be with you.
You don't know how long I have wanted
You are unaware of the extent of my longing.
To touch your lips and hold you tight
I yearn to touch your lips and hold you close.
You don't know how long I have waited
My anticipation for this moment has been prolonged.
And I was going to tell you tonight
I planned to reveal my feelings tonight.
But the secret is still my own
The emotions I hold are still kept secret.
And my love for you is still unknown
My love for you remains undisclosed.
Alone
Once again, I am alone.
Till now I always got by on my own
Historically, I managed without relying on others.
I never really cared until I met you
My indifference changed when I met you.
And now it chills me to the bone
The idea of being alone now terrifies me.
How do I get you alone
How can I be with you?
How do I get you alone
Reiteration of the desire to be with you.
How do I get you alone
Repetition of the plea to be with you.
How do I get you alone
Continued repetition expressing the desire to be with you.
Alone... alone...
Emphasizing the state of being alone.
