I Used To Be Alone

(album: When The Smoke Clears - 2021)

I used to be alone
I used to take the subway home
Lie in my apartment
Staring at my phone
I used to be alone
Made dinner with the TV on
Hiding from the silence
Heavy like a stone

Hmm...
Hm-hm-hm...
Hm-hm-hm...

I used to be alone
I met you on the basement floor
Laughing over nothing
Flowers in your hair
We walked until the dawn
Broke behind a wall of clouds
High above Manhattan
Still haven't come down

I'll love you
Like there's no tomorrow
Time is always borrowed
It's not ours to keep
I'll hold you
Like I'm gonna lose you
Like I've never had you
In my arms

I used to be alone
I used to be alone

I used to be alone
I met you on the basement floor
High above Manhattan
I still haven't come down
