 Singles,
 you & I are singles
 Strangers
 trying to stay warm in the snow
 Maybe
 we will wake as strangers
 or maybe we will find
 we have somewhere to go.

 Couples
 all start out as singles
 Lovers
 like to walk alone now & then
 Even
 married folks act single
 if they should feel the need
 to find themselves again


 REFRAIN x2: Singles,
 all my loves were singles,
 Like the dollar bills that slip away
 before you even know

 Music,
 pourin' out on singles,
 finds a home
 on someone's stereo
 And like a stack of singles
 We'll survive as singles
 Trying
 hard to match one shoe with one glove

 Lovers,
 'cause we share the same dreams
 Dreams of what the world
 can't have too many of

 Like singles
 doubled up with love
