I Wish We Could Be Alone

I wish we could be alone

So all of the world couldn't see

How much we have together

And how much you mean to me

I wish we could put out the flame

But oh, sweet baby, tell me would it be right?

I take the subway and you take the train

I got a husband and you got a wife

I wish we could love and then not always have to pretend

I wish we could be alone, all alone

I wish we could be alone, all alone

I know it's not simple, but I know that it's strong

And I know it will never be easy, but I know it ain't wrong

I wish it could always be the way it is when you're kissin' me

I wish we could be alone, all alone

I wish we could be alone, all alone

And so we'll go on and on, hidin' out the way that we do

Keepin' it from all of our friends, there ain't a-nothin' between us two

I wish we could hang about, and not worry who's givin' in or out

I wish we could be alone, all alone

I wish we could be alone, all alone

I wish we could be alone, all alone
