you wake up to the sound of crying
you make up and she leaves you alone

oh, I don't know why she keeps me around
if she had sense she'd see I'm letting her down
but nobody knows and no eyes can see
I love her and so I'll stay with her (stay with her)
yeah yeah yeah yeah

you can't be always alone
(alone I would die in my sleep)
what would you do if she goes?
(I don't know, I don't know)

I need her in the night and I need her in the morning
I want her every day of the year
and sometimes I scream and sometimes I lie
but I do it just to keep her by my side
if she ever leaves, she'll stay in my dreams
I love her and so I'll stay with her (stay with her)
yeah yeah yeah yeah

you can't be always alone
(alone I would die in my sleep)
what would you do if she goes?
(I don't know, I don't know)

baby says she's caught in a nightmare
she's scared that I might leave her behind
the monsters who steal hearts have got three eyes
and the wonder twins are speaking in rhymes

baby says she's caught in a nightmare
she's scared that I might leave her alone
but in the morning light she's
the only one I know

(I don't know, I don't know)
