Alone
Why do you carry an umbrella,
On such a sunny day?
To prepare for the rain,
Of tears you know will come?
Why do you choose to walk alone,
When so many wish to take you by the hand?
Do you fear their tears,
Will drench you with your own?
Listen to the lone footsteps
As they echo.
Why do you walk alone
When so many wish to guide you?
Do you fear the echo of another’s steps will cease?
Take my hand,
And never will your hand be empty.
Never will your footsteps be alone.
I will bring you into my world,
So you will never fear,
Of another’s hope,
Of another’s love,
Come into my world,
And you’ll never again,
Have to be alone.
