I look around the town tonight
My leathers hold my warmth inside
I reach for you but you're not here
Like I always did when you were near

Tonight I try with all my might
To hide the tears that blur my sight
I'm standing here like a statue of stone
Then reality hits me now

I walk alone
I'm all alone

Tomorrow is a brand new day
I wish I could go back to change things
I'm well aware that I can't fix the past
I'll make a future with another chance

Tonight I try with all my might
To hide the tears that blur my sight
I'm standing here like a statue of stone
Then reality hits me now

I stand alone
I'm all alone

I look around the bedroom tonight
My blankets hold the warmth inside
I call your name but you're not here
Memories hit and I can't steer clear

Tonight I try with all my might
To wipe the tears that blur my sight
Your perfume still lingering in the air
Then reality sets in again

I'm here alone
I'm all alone
