You Ain't Alone

I've chased all the cracks up and down the ceiling

Worn a path across these hardwood floors

I've stared at the walls and I've looked out the window

And I pray for your knock upon my door

There's a sad lovers' moon shining on the evening

I miss you more than ever and I'm sorry that you're gone

I wish things were different

I had no way of knowing

If you're all by yourself tonight

You ain't alone, you ain't alone

No coffee on the stove

And on the table in the kitchen

There's a busted hand of midnight solitaire

There's a ghost in the bedroom

A nightgown on the dresser

A broken heart that wishes you were there

There's a sad lovers' moon shining on the evening

I miss you more than ever and I'm sorry that you're gone

I wish things were different

I had no way of knowing

If you're all by yourself tonight

You ain't alone, you ain't alone

Tears of sorrow and regret

Ashtrays full of cigarettes

Empty bottles lined up just like soldiers

But by now somebody holds her
