I’ve never been so alone, alone
And I’ve, I’ve never been so alive.

Punch drunk on somebody’s joke
What happened to the time?

This is not my life, or maybe it is
And I keep on forgetting myself

Any moment you’ve been living in
You could turn it on like a light

Searching for something I could never give you
There’s someone who understands you more than I do
A sadness I can’t erase

But nothing lasts forever, last summer is done
Can we find another one? Find another one

And it’s all the same to me
Let it in cause I want you so
I can hardly breathe and release

And we should all just go along
And it would all be so easy
If we could just say ‘Let it be’
But that’s not me.

Someplace back there
Smiling in the pictures you would take.
