In Love, Alone Songtext

von Richard Carpenter

I memorise the words i want to say i practice every move i'll make
I play the scene like you were here and i feel every breath you take
But all my plans just seem to melt away the moment you walk in the room
I try to speak but words won't come till i'm alone again

I'm leaving my heart on the shelf
Sleep is a place i only cry myself
And dream by myself

I'm not in love alone we put our two hearts together
Just like i've always known once we begin we're forever
And i will never spend a long night without you again

So now you know what i've been going through
Now all i really need to know is why your eyes look so surprised
Oh no this can't be true would you have let me walk away?
Why have you kept your feelings locked away? did i hear you say?
