He was a shy boy when he was at school
It took him years to learn the golden rule to lose
He gets so angry, see it in his eyes
He has no patience with people telling lies
To where the oldest dies
I want to live where there's room to breathe
Take one step closer and I swear I'll leave alone
Erase the past and never hesitate
Don't leave the light on, don't stay up and wait alone
Alone
Alone
He was a quiet man who always knew his place
The morning train was a fate he had to face each day
He'd get so lonely and now everybody's gone
He watches from his window as the world moves on but he'll stay
'Cause it's better that way
He said
I want to live where there's room to breathe
Take one step closer and I swear I'll leave alone
Alone
Alone
Erase the past and never hesitate
Don't leave the light on, don't stay up and wait alone
Alone
Alone
Well I've got the keys and I've got the car
Don't make me need you when I've come this far alone
Alone
Alone
