| All alone, on my own,
|
| Since I walked out on you
|
| I walked out on me, now it’s gone,
|
| And you, what to do,
|
| There’s so much time and so many nights to get through,
|
| Oh why do we play, and why do we lose,
|
| It’s a dangerous life we live, we two.
|
| We are fools, we make all these rules,
|
| We make it so hard to find love, to feel free, to
|
| Be fresh outta school,
|
| And now, what of romance,
|
| Do we know that life is sweeter when we’re taking a chance,
|
| So why do we run, and why do we cry,
|
| It’s crazy life we live, you and I.
|
| Carousels and wishing wells were the things we loved,
|
| To fly away in a big balloon was what she talked of, oh …
|
| Alone, out on my own,
|
| I just wander the streets and stare at the places we’ve known,
|
| And now, what of myself,
|
| Can I go on pretending a love for somebody else,
|
| Oh why do we play, and why do we lose,
|
| It’s a dangerous life we live, we two.
|
| Carousels and wishing wells were the things we loved,
|
| Why did we play, why did we stay alone, we two,
|
| To fly away in a big balloon was what she talked of,
|
| Why did we love and leave the memory of we two,
|
| Now she is gone, I’m left to carry on. |
