When I was young

I never needed anyone

Making love was just for fun

That day is done



Livin' alone

I think about the friends I've known

But when I dial the telephone

Nobody's home



All by myself

Don't wanna' be

All by myself

Anymore

All by myself

Don't wanna' live

All by myself

Anymore



Never too sure

Sometimes I'm so insecure

The love that's distant and obscure

Remains the cure



All by myself

Don't wanna' be

All by myself

Anymore

All by myself

Don't wanna' live

All by myself

Anymore



(instrumental)



All by myself

Don't wanna' be

All by myself

Anymore

All by myself

Don't wanna' live

All by myself

Anymore



When I was young

I never needed anyone

And making love was just for fun

Those days are gone
