Alone Lyrics

Here on Welbeck street

The party must move on

Twirling my umbrella

Stepping lightly past the thrum



Lonely as a child

That lives among old men

Lonely as the body

Left behind when souls have fled

Left behind when souls have fled



Alone, alone, alone, alone

Through the streets of London

I once called you home

Alone, alone, alone, alone



City made of gray

Bloodshot with buses

Carry them away

To old, familiar places



I worked hand in glove

Pouring out my love

And if I've been betrayed

Will you spin me on my way

Will you spin me on my way



Alone, alone, alone, alone

Through the streets of London

I once called you home

Alone, alone, alone, alone



Well that's a world away

From where I stand today

My heart is heavy as a stone

And I was lead astray

Now I'm bewildered and alone



In the city

Ten million strong

Here I am alone
