The cheese stands alone
The cheese stands alone
Hi ho the derry-o
The cheese stands alone

And desperately I long to feel your touch
But you left me all alone in love

You never walk alone
And you're forever talking on the phone

I think we're alone now
There doesn't seem to be anyone around
I think we're alone now
The beating of our hearts is the only sound

Sandra Dodd said...

I'm stranded all alone in the gas station of love
And I have to use the self-service pumps

"One More Minute," Weird Al

Deborah in IL said...

I can hear you telling me
How you needed to be free
And you had some things to work out alone
Now you're standing here telling me how you have grown

Here Come Those Tears Again
Jackson Browne

I come to the garden alone
While the dew is still on the roses
And the voice I hear falling on my ear
The Son of God discloses...

"In the Garden," which I sang at my dad's funeral, because he had told me he wanted it sung and no one else there knew it except my uncle who was too choked up to sing with me so I had to do it as a solo even though it's a duet, and a good one. Miche played it on "talk," which brought it to the forefront of my song-jumbled mind.

When the work took me away

Leave me alone,
I don't wanna be quiet,
I don't wanna be good,
I don't wanna do anything you tell me I should

You are not alone.
Believe me,
No one is alone.

Sandra Dodd said...

Don't know what it means to hold you tight
Being here alone tonight with you
It feels so right, now...

"Hold me Tight" (Beatles)

has "only," and "lonely" and it kept running through my head without me getting to the word, so I had to listen to it.

Sandra Dodd said...

OH!!! From Spamalot:

I'm all alone
All by myself
There is no one here beside me...

(and Patsy's there, and eventually the full cast singing back-up)

Deborah in IL said...

Leaving me to doubt
Talk about God and his mercy
Who if he really does exist
Why did he desert me?
In my hour of need
I truly am indeed
Alone again, naturally

Gilbert O'Sullivan
singing the prettiest little morbidly depressing song

Deborah in IL said...

We're all alone no chaperone
Can't get our number
The world's in slumber
Let's misbehave!

Which I remember from Woody Allen's "Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Sex"

Shanona Ryder said...

Love has flown
all alone
I sit
and wonder why-yi-yi-oh
why you left me
Oh Sandy...

---from Grease

Cap'n Franko said...

All alone am I, ever since you said goodbye.
All alone, with just the beat of my heart.
People all around; but I don't hear a sound,
Just the lonely beat of my heart.

All Alone Am I - Tami Yuro

Nowhere to turn, noone to go to

When he popped his last balloon

'Til now
I always got by on my own
I never really cared until I met you
And now it chills me to the bone
How do I get you alone?
How do I get you alone?

Katie Kiekhaefer said...

And what is this weather
And what is this darkness
And why do I feel so alone?

Alone in her apartment she dwells
Til the man of her dreams
Comes to break the spell

Looking hard into your eyes
There was nobody I'd ever known
Such an empty surprise
To feel so alone

I am alone
Gazing from my window
To the streets below
On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow

Of the God who is worthy of worship alone.

Everyone must stand alone

And it feels like home...

Oh, oh oh oh

Just picture a penthouse
Way up in the sky
With hinges on chimneys
For stars to go by
A sweet slice of heaven
For just you and I
When we're alone

("Penthouse Serenade", by Val Burton)

You're all alone
Well maybe that's because you're so unpleasant

Someone is Crazy
