Lyrics Wilson Phillips

Wilson Phillips

Alone

Baby, don't you wanna cry?

'Cause I really need to

And I really miss you

Oh baby, I'm a lady, a baby, oh baby

Well you haven't got much to say, uh-uh

Just take me to the garden

I know there's a way

See that woman sitting over there in the corner

She sleeps with many candles around her bed

Once the night's getting old and you really wanna tell her

She'll find the light and run all the way back home

From mystic eyes she looks at you if she wants to

But never will they tell you what's ahead

And though she may be cold, she doesn't want to hurt anyone

She just wants to live a life of her own

And she doesn't want to be alone

But she only wants to be at home

So it's better if she lives unknown. Unknown

The voice inside her sings a different tone

Alone, 'cause no one understands her

Who's that woman sitting over there in the corner?

She may be here but she's very far away

Once the night's getting old and you think you're getting closer

You'll be the fool 'cause she's never gonna let you in

From mystic skies (mystic skies) the rains will fall when they want to

Sometimes it happens every single day (What will the moon say?)

Does she wanna spend the rest of her life just hiding out and hurting herself

When they come to the door now is she gonna let them in?

And she doesn't want to be alone

But she only wants to be at home

So it's better if she stays unknown. (It's better) Unknown.

The voice inside her says she couldn't be wrong

She's alone, 'cause no one reprimands her

Try to look her in the eye

Try to look her in the eye

Try and look her in the eye

Try and look her in the eye

No, no, no, no,... oh no

And she only wants to be at home

So it's better if she lives... unknown

Alone
