I wish we could be alone So all of the world couldn't see How much we have together And how much you mean to me I wish we could put out the flame But oh, sweet baby, tell me would it be right? I take the subway and you take the train I got a husband and you got a wife I wish we could love and then not always have to pretend I wish we could be alone, all alone I wish we could be alone, all alone I know it's not simple But I know that it's strong And I know it will never be easy
But I know it ain't wrong I wish it could always be the way it is when you're kissin' me I wish we could be alone, all alone I wish we could be alone, all alone And so we'll go on and on Hidin' out the way that we do Keepin' it from all of our friends There ain't a nothin' between us two I wish we could hang about And not worry who's givin' in or out I wish we could be alone, all alone I wish we could be alone, all alone I wish we could be alone, all alone
