Stephen Simmonds: Alone

(Verse 1)
My fate has been sealed, my fate has been shown
It's left me no shield, it's left me alone...
The lonely one's weak, but doesn't lay down
The lonely one speaks when no one's around...
It's cold when you're outside and warm when you're in
I've followed my instincts, so life is my sin...
Love is my witness, love is my truth
Lord is the judge for me and for you...

(Chorus)
Alone...
It's so hard to live
Alone...
I know I can't be positive
Alone...
I got no place to call
My home...
And I got no friends to call, oh, no...

(Verse 2)
The day turns to night, the night turns to day
I can't tell the white or black from the grey
<Can't tell the white from the black. I can't tell the black from the grey>
Maybe I shouldn't, maybe I should
Maybe I couldn't and maybe I could...
<Don't know, but maybe I should, lady, if you only could>
Lend me some time so I can explain
Show me a sign and release my pain...
<Outside there's nothing but rain, inside there's nothing but pain>
If you approve, then it will be
I won't leave you if you won't leave me... <Oh..., you don't leave me...>

(Chorus) x 2

(Bridge)
Uhmmm...

(Chorus/Variarion)
If you can't, then no one can save me
I'm tired of waiting now, baby
You gotta let me know, gotta let me know, you gotta let me know
If you can't, then no one can save me
I'm tired of waiting now, baby
You gotta let me know, gotta let me know, you gotta let me know
If you can't, then no one can save me
You gotta let me know now, baby
You gotta let me know, gotta let me know, you gotta let me know
Ooh...baby, my love is for real
Oh, yes, girl, it's gonna make me feel...
Ooh...baby, my love is for real
Oh, yes, girl, it's gonna make me feel...
Ooh...baby, my love is for...
