Lyrics So Alone - Charlie

So Alone

The city streets are all closing in
No place to hide from that cold cold wind
Down here on the ground people rush around
Running home before night begins
But I just walk round 'cause this ain’t my town
It’s darker now and it feels like rain
The wind blows hard, all the shopfronts strain
There are neon signs showing date and time
The people cram in those rush hour trains
But I just walk round 'cause this ain’t my town
I’ve tried all the city bars, this place could be Mars, I feel so alone
I’ve seen every movie show, I stay till they close, I’m so far from home
The French I learnt at school don’t help me at all, I feel so alone
So alone — I don’t have the money to
Telephone — if I had my way I would
Run for home — there’s no chance of that so I’m
On my own — wishing that I could be
Flying home — if only I could I would
Try to phone — I’m cold and I’m tired and I’m
So alone
The rain comes quick, I find the nearest bar
Just one small beer, I know it won’t go far
Too much time to drink, too much time to think
I never thought that it would be so hard
But I just walk round 'cause this ain’t my town
I’ve tried all the city bars, this place could be Mars, I feel so alone
I’ve seen every movie show, I stay till they close, I’m so far from home
The French I learnt at school don’t help me at all, I feel so alone
So alone — I don’t have the money to
Telephone — if I had my way I would
Run for home — there’s no chance of that so I’m
On my own — wishing that I could be
Flying home — if only I could I would
Try to phone — I’m cold and I’m tired and I’m
So alone
