You Ain’t Alone

–

Ivy on a stone wall grew

Your glorious past escaping you

Music playing, but it was only an echo

On a dark and empty stage

–

You had Marshall stacks turned up to eleven

Now your friends have gone to hell,

or maybe heaven

You’re alone, waiting in the wings

And the light is slowly dying

–

[Chorus]

But you ain’t alone!

Cos I stand here with you

You wanna fly again ?

I’ll help to lift you

When you cannot move

I’m here for you to drift to

You know you ain’t alone

You really ain’t alone!

–

Come down tonight to Sunset Beach

Meet me at the place where the tide can’t reach

Remember how it felt to be young

And fame was in the air

–

Lie on this sand, where your brown skin tanned

And I’ll kiss your lips,

I’ll hold your hand.

Telephone poles stretch back to town

Like milestones of memories

–

You ain’t alone!

Cos I stand here with you

You wanna fly again?

I’ll help to lift you

When you cannot move

I’m here for you to drift to

You know you ain’t alone

You really ain’t alone!

[Bridge]

You always had a future view

But the past still haunts everything you do

I’m the only one you ever show that to.

Oh, you are my wild heart

I’ll stand with you!

–

You ain’t alone

Cos I stand here with you

When I left you here

I never thought that I’d miss you

But you dragged me back

You know that I can’t resist you

You know you ain’t alone

You really ain’t alone!

–

Ivy on an old wall slowly grew

So slowly that you never knew

Music playing, but it’s only an echo.

–

On a dark and empty stage.
