If I knew just what to say

If I could read your mind

Then I know we'd find the way to leave

Our shyness all behind

Cause I see that there's a message in your eyes

But it takes so many words

And I realize it's not easy to be free

If I could figure out just how to read between the lines

Then I'd know right here and now what's really on your mind

Cause I think that you would like to stay with me

If we had the time to choose

What would it be could we really be so free

Cause you know I have to go

I just wanted you to know

You don't have to be alone

Please don't even ask me

Why when it comes time to go

I can see it in your eyes

That you don't really want to know

But you know that I would pass this way again

And our memories will keep us until then

In the meantime we'll be free

Cause you know I have to go

I just wanted you to know

You don't have to be alone

I just wanted you to know

I just wanted you to know

You don't have to be alone

Of the alone

Of the alone
