Lyrics Neil Finn – Alone

Here on Welbeck street
The party must move on
Twirling my umbrella
Stepping lightly past the thrum

Lonely as a child
That lives among old men
Lonely as the body
Left behind when souls have fled
Left behind when souls have fled

Alone, alone, alone, alone
Through the streets of London
I once called you home
Alone, alone, alone, alone

City made of gray
Bloodshot with buses
Carry them away
To old, familiar places

I worked hand in glove
Pouring out my love
And if I’ve been betrayed
Will you spin me on my way
Will you spin me on my way

Alone, alone, alone, alone
Through the streets of London
I once called you home
Alone, alone, alone, alone

Well that’s a world away
From where I stand today
My heart is heavy as a stone
And I was lead astray

In the city
Ten million strong
Here I am alone
