(Soft piano tune repeating)

When you�re talkin� to yourself, and nobody�s home
You can fool yourself
You came in this world alone
(Whisper) Alone

(Killer guitar riffs)

So nobody ever told you, baby
How it was gonna be
So what�ll happen to you, baby
I guess we�ll have to wait and see

1, 2

Old at heart, but I�m only 28
And I�m much too young to let love break my heart
Young at heart, but it�s getting much too late
To find ourselves so far apart

I don�t know how you�re s�posed to find me lately
An� what more could you ask from me
How could you say that I never needed you?
When you took everthing�
Said you took everything from me
Ooo, I,I, I

(Killer guitar riffs)

Young at heart, an� it gets so hard to wait
When no one I know, can seem to help me now
Old at heart, but I mustn�t hesitate
If I�m to find my own way out

Still talkin� to myself and nobody�s home
(Whispers) Alone

(Killer Guitar Riffs)

So nobody ever told us, baby
How it was gonna to be
So what�ll happen to us, baby
I guess we�ll have to wait and see

(Piano solo)

When I find out all the reasons
Maybe I�ll find another way
Find another day
With all the changing seasons of my life
Maybe I�ll get it right, next time
And now that you�ve been broken down
Got your head out of the clouds
You�re back down on the ground
And you don�t talk so loud
And you don�t walk so proud
Anymore
An� what for

(Guitar Solo)

Well I jumped into the river, too many times to make it home
I�m out here on my own, an� driftin� all alone
If it doesn�t show, give it time
To read between the lines
�Cause I see the storm, getting closer
And the waves, they get so high
Seems everything we�ve ever known�s here
Why must it drift away, and die?

(Guitar Solo)

I�ll never find anyone to replace you
Guess I�ll have to make it through
This time
Oh, this time
Without you

I knew the storm was getting closer
And all my friends said I was high
But, everything we�ve ever known�s here
I never wanted it to die
