How would this be if I was alone tonight Maybe then my love everything would turn out right I wish that this were easy but you know that it never is It seems like hearts get broken during things like this And if you see her walking down along these streets Her body softly swaying to her heart's broken beats And if you see her tell her that I'm doing fine And tell her if she feels like talking she should call me sometime And I can't fight it anymore I can't stop it once it starts Well it's a shame babe Well it's a shame babe Well it's a shame babe The way we've torn it all apart And if you see her let her know I wish her well And if things will get much better tell her only time will tell 'Cause if she's lonely well I'm alright 'Cause you know When it falls down I'll be there to pick it up one more time
