People Alone
Discovering Unity in Solitude: Exploring Human Connections Beyond Isolation
Lyrics
Take me along
Expressing a desire to accompany someone
I don't care where you have gone
Indifference to the destination; willing to follow
And I don't have to know
Not requiring precise details about the journey
Exactly where you go---ing
Open to the unfolding of the journey
If you leave me behind
Concern about being left behind
Then everything on your mind
Emphasizing the impact on thoughts if left alone
Will turn to pictures of the world
Imagining the world as memories if left alone
We might have been
Reflecting on missed opportunities with a companion
People alone may go very fast
Observation that individuals alone can progress quickly
But maybe not so far
Raising doubt about the distance traveled alone
Playing alone is still solitaire
Highlighting the solitude of playing a game alone
Re---mem---ber
Reiterating the need for remembering
People alone may reach for a love
Recognition that solitary individuals seek love
But only half as well
Noting a potential limitation in finding love alone
People alone may seem satisfied
Suggesting that solitary individuals may appear content
How can they tell
Raising skepticism about their true satisfaction
If we are crossing the line
Contemplating the boundary between individuals
Where there's no yours and no mine
Describing a situation without possessions
We'll find it easy to see
Expectation of clarity when people are together
People should be toge---ther
Stressing the importance of people being together
How can they tell
Raising doubt about perceiving satisfaction
Take me along
Repeating the desire to be taken along
Let's not be people alone
Advocating against being solitary
I'm on your mind
Confirming presence in the thoughts of the other
So please don't leave me behind
Pleading not to be left behind
Crossing the line
Addressing the boundary between individuals again
Where there's no yours and no mine, ohh hooh
Highlighting a situation without possessions again
