We sleep together, close and warm We calm each other through the storm We set up home, but in a while We're tempted by another's smile But when it's all played out If the truth were known You have to learn to live alone We dance around the fading light He holds her closer every night He fell in love, but she did not But in the end he's all she's got When it's all played out When the truth is known You have to learn to live alone We fly around the world too fast We cannot make one moment last We love the crowd We sing and play We do it all We get our way When we're all played out When the truth is known We have to learn to live alone When we're all played out If the truth were known You have to learn to live alone To live alone
