Been alone so long
that I've forgotten what it's like
to feel somebody next to me
and hear her breathing peacefully
when I wake up at night
Been alone so long
that I've forgotten what to say--
if I meet somebody who
might easily resemble you
I smile, but look away
I look away
Been alone so long
that I've forgotten what to do:
how to make the whole thing right
and how to help if she's uptight
and when to run and when to fight
how to make her stay the night--
that's if I ever knew
Been alone so long
that I've forgotten what it's like
to feel somebody next to me
and hear her breathing peacefully
when I wake up at night
wake up at night
