How to be alone

It may be a little while
Or it may end up a long time
You'll be alone, you'll be alone
When I leave, I won't say goodbye
It's a line hooked up on every night
You'll be alone, you'll be alone

You know I can't control this stuff, baby
You can say what you want, I won't say maybe

I can't read your mind, but I'm a pretty good guesser
I could give you more, but I'll probably give less
So tell me what you want, go find out your needs
I may not conceive them but at least we'll see

You don't have to wait this time
'Cause it might end up forever
You'll be alone, you'll be alone
There is a limit now
When you have to go and take a bow
And be alone, and be alone

You know I can't control this stuff, baby
You can take what you want, I won't say maybe

I can't read your mind, but I'm a pretty good guesser
I could give you more, but I'll probably give less
So tell me what you want, go find out your needs
I may not conceive them but at least we'll see

I can't read your mind, but I'm a pretty good guesser
I could give you more, but I'll probably give less
So tell me what you want, go find out your needs
I may not conceive them but at least we'll see

Oh, at least we'll see
Oh, maybe we can see
