it's not that she minded he'd had other lovers
until that day she never dreamt of their faces
she took it for granted that he'd kissed them on their ears
just why didn't he didn't he didn't love her

can you tell the moment a dream dies inside you
sudden and final and nobody warned you
now X marks a death-day in red on your calendar
it haunts to ensure that you always remember

you're alone, you're alone, you're alone
you're alone, you're alone, you're alone

he stood in the doorway looking right through me
he lent in to kiss me, but i could sense it was a chore
he used to tell me that i was beautiful
but now he's not sure

that's when i realised i'm all alone
that's when i realised that alone never goes
i'm alone, i'm alone, i'm alone
i'm alone, i'm alone, i'm alone
i'm alone, i'm alone, i'm alone
i'm alone, i'm alone, i'm alone
