I Dream My Dreams Alone

I go to bed alone I wake up alone I eat all my meals in silence Not another soul at home I laugh alone I cry alone I wander through these rooms Imprisoned in my home I dream alone I scream alone I reach out for an embrace In this bedroom of my home Alone, alone I’m tired of being alone I’m dying here alone While you travel far from home And then you come back home There is noise and there is life And as you lie down to sleep I’m left to wonder deep You’re beside me and yet Alone, Alone I dream my dreams alone For in your obliged embrace My heart is dying… alone.
