I Think We're Alone Now

«Children behave»,
that’s what they say when we’re together.
«And watch how you play».
They don’t understand,
and so we’re
Running just as fast as we can,
holding on to one another’s hand.
Trying to get away into the night,
and then you put your arms around me
and we tumble to the ground,
and then you say
I think we’re alone now,
there doesn’t seem to be anyone around.
I think we’re alone now,
the beating of our heart is the only sound.
Look at the way
we gotta hide what we’re doing,
'Cos what would they say
if they only knew?
And so we’re
Running just as fast as we can,
holding on to one another’s hand.
Trying to get away into the night,
and then you put your arms around me
and we tumble to the ground,
and then you say
I think we’re alone now,
there doesn’t seem to be anyone around.
I think we’re alone now,
the beating of our heart is the only sound.
Running just as fast as we can,
holding on to one another’s hand.
Trying to get away into the night,
and then you put your arms around me
and we tumble to the ground,
and then you say
All of a sudden I find myself hurtling through space
with only the taste of your lips as evidence
that I once battled against your chronic indifference.
When we couldn’t go the distance I was left crippled,
dead sure of the outcome, you lose some, you get thrashed in some…
I think we’re alone now,
there doesn’t seem to be anyone around.
I think we’re alone now,
the beating of our heart is the only sound.
I think we’re alone now,
there doesn’t seem to be anyone around.
I think we’re alone now,
the beating of our heart is the only sound
