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
