Once Alone

(album: "The Party's Over" And Other Great Willie Nelson Songs - 1967)

I'm so tired of all this trouble now aren't you
We've tried and failed to make our dreams come true
It seems that we had dream worlds all our own
So don't you think that we should try it once alone
Life's too short to spend it feeling blue
And it's not too late our dreams could still come true
But before our chance for happiness is gone
Don't you think that we should try it once alone
It's not your fault and neither is it mine
It seems that we're just victims of the times
It's not that I don't love you cause I do
But love alone can't make a dream come true
I suppose that we'll survive the parting tears
We've survived so many others through the years
But before our chance for happiness is gone
Don't you think that we should try it once alone
