You Are Not Alone lyrics

She sees him laying in the bed alone tonight.

Only thing touching him is a crack of light.

Pieces of her hair are wrapped

around and 'round his fingers.

And he reaches for her side,

for any sign of her that lingers.

And she says you are not alone

laying in the light.

Put out the fire in your head

and lay with me tonight.

One of them bullets went straight for the jugular vein.

There were people running, a flash of light,

then everything changed.

Nothing really matters in the end, you know,

all the worries sever.

Don't be afraid for me my friend,

one day we all fall down forever.

And you are not alone

laying in the light.

Put out the fire in your head

and lay with me tonight.

The wedding date was June,

just like any other bride.

She loved him like no one before

and it was good to be alive.

But sometimes that can slip away as fast

as any fingers through your hands.

So you let time forgive the past

and go and make some other plans.

And are not alone

laying in the light.

Put out the fire in your head

and lay with me tonight.

You are not alone

laying in the light.

Put out the fire in your head

and lay with me tonight.
