You're just a mile away

One thousand five tiny steps from here

But if I brought you near

would you believe when I say

It seems like yesterday

that I could reach out and touch your face

But as I fall from grace

into whose arms can I lay

It's always much too late

We get the signs

We can't communicate

Or turn back time

So what will be now, do you feel somehow

not so together and not quite as strong

Now I believe

Alone doesn't have to mean lonely

After you've gone

I need a healing wind

to cool the flame burning in my sight

It must accelarate

For two wrongs they don't make a right

And all these solitaires, lone victories

Wars faught in isolation, with none to please

So what will be now, do you feel somehow

not so together and not quite as strong

Now I believe

Alone doesn't have to mean lonely

After you've gone

The future's still uncertain, the past is done

So what will be now, do you feel somehow

not so together and not quite as strong

Now I believe

Alone doesn't have to mean lonely

After you've gone

Now I believe

Alone doesn't have to mean lonely

After you've gone

Now I believe

Alone doesn't have to mean lonely

After you've gone
