I never thought I'd say it
But I can't take anymore
We both work so hard that I forgot
Just what it was that we've been working for

This daily grind has wore us down
Where we hardly even talk when we come home
Girl, I think it would be best for us
If I had some time alone

Alone with you, together in love
Where we can't be reached while we get back in touch
Darlin', let's pull the shades and kill the lights in this room
I need some time alone, alone with you

I could go stay at my brother's and ask him
Why he thinks we've grown apart
Then come back in a week or two
And try to make a brand new start

Or I could belly-up to Shady's bar
And tell 'em all just where we went wrong
But I think we'd be better off
If I just spent some time alone

Alone with you, together in love
Where we can't be reached while we get back in touch
Darlin', let's pull the shades and kill the lights in this room
I need some time alone, alone with you

Darlin', let's pull the shades and kill the lights in this room
I need some time alone, alone with you
