Lyrics Alone In The World - Patti Austin

Alone In The World

Tonight
Why not pretend
We’re alone in the world
And that we’re safe
From the storm out there
You’ll be the only love
That I’ve known in the world
No clocks to measure
The time we share
Out there the winds
Are bitter cold
And there is too much pain
And far too little love
To few others who care
The here and now
Is all that we own in the world
And love’s the refuge
That sees us through
Sleep inside my arms
Kiss the world away
Let tomorrow come
Let me face the day with you
The here and now
Is all that we own, in the world
And love’s the refuge
That sees us through
Sleep inside my arms
Kiss the world away
Let tomorrow come
Let me face the day, with you
