Hello Alone

Hello Alone -Charlie Winston

Hello alone it s you and me again
How can we pretend we ve never met
Hello alone you might as well come in
We ve been making beds for so long now

I never told you that I want you
I thought I had you out of my head
But every time she leaves me
Refusing to believe me
You re always there
And even though I don t invite you
And your presence is a pain
You always let me be just who I am
Until I m glad to bring back that refrain again

Hello alone it s you and me again
How can we pretend we ve never met
Hello alone you might as well come in
We ve been shaking hands for too long now

I even tried to re-convince you
But it was just no use at all
Cause every time I climbed inside your mind
I saw the mirror on the wall
But it s no use to pose the question
When the answer s never she
And then I have to face up to the facts
With saxophones and old trombones
Carrying me home to say

Hello alone it s you and me again
How can we pretend we ve never met
Hello alone you might as well come in
We ve been making beds for too long

Perhaps I ll take a holiday
And get as far away as I can
But then I d just be far away
And just as much a lonesome man
With his head in his hands
And chanting

Hello alone it s you and me again
How can we pretend we ve never met
Hello alone you might as well come in
We 've been making beds for too long now
Oh oh we ve been making friends for so long now
Hey hey we ve been shaking hands for so long so long now
