I Walk Alone
Echoes of Solitude: Embracing Love's Absence in Willie Nelson's 'I Walk Alone'
Lyrics
I'll walk alone
I will go on my own path without your company
Where once we wandered
Reflecting on the times we used to explore together
It seems so strange
The absence of your presence feels unfamiliar and odd
Since you are gone
Since you departed, things have changed
'Til you return
Until the moment you come back
I'll stay the same, dear
During your absence, I will remain the same, my love
I'll still be true
I will remain faithful and genuine
And walk alone
Continuing the journey of life alone
By stars above
Swearing my love for you by the celestial bodies
I swear to love you
Pledging to love you sincerely
With all the love
With all the affection I've ever possessed
I've ever known
Expressing deep and enduring love
While we're apart
While we are separated
I'll stay the same, dear
Despite the distance, I will remain the same
And when teardrops start
When tears begin to fall
I'll walk alone
I will continue walking my solitary path
The flame of love
The intensity of love still burns brightly
Is brightly burning
Confirming that the flame of love is strong
And you know that I'm
Acknowledging that I belong to you
Your very own
You are my unique and exclusive possession
Each night I pray
Every night, I pray for your return
For your returning
Expressing the hope for your homecoming
But while you're gone
During your absence
I'll walk alone
I will continue walking alone
