Lyrics Gladys Knight

Gladys Knight

Home Alone

Being alone can be so very painful

Sometimes you don’t wanna go home

You work your fingers to the bone

To try and fill the long and lonely days

Only to go home and face the restless nights

To learn to live without the one you love

Sometimes you walk the floor

And watch the walls so they don’t close in on you

I don’t wanna be, never wanna be home alone

When you’re home alone

You tend to think about all the good times you’ve spent

With the one you love

But though love is gone

Those old memories still linger on and on and on

You just can’t let go

To learn to live without the one you love

Sometimes you walk the floor

And watch the walls so they don’t close in on you

I don’t wanna be, never wanna be home alone

No, no, no, no, no

I don’t wanna be, never, never wanna be home alone

Hey baby

All by myself

No-one to hold my hand

Do you understand

To learn to live without the one you love

Sometimes you walk the floor

And watch the walls so they don’t close in on you

When you learn to live without the one you love

Still those old memories linger on and on and on and on

Oh, I don’t wanna be, never wanna be home alone

Baby can you hear me

I don’t wanna be, never wanna be home alone

No, no, no, baby, no, no, oh

I don’t wanna be, never wanna be home alone

Ooh, oh, no, no, I don’t wanna be, never wanna be home alone
