How to Be Alone
There's a space bare in my closet
Where your jacket used to hang
Left your lighter, but I lost it
Now there's nothing of you here
And it's hard to catch my breath
When I'm not sure what comes next
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
You're the only love I've ever really known
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
I've got to find out who I am now that you're gone
It isn't easy learning how to be alone
And I've been checking on the weather out in California, ay
And I imagine what it's like there where you are
It's not much warmer now than it was right when we first met
Driving 'round those upstate back roads in your car
And it's hard to catch my breath
When I'm not sure what comes next
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
You're the only love I've ever really known
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
I've got to find out who I am now that you're gone
It isn't easy learning how to be alone
And I think it hurts the most
When I'm alone in my bed
I fall asleep next to your ghost
Wishing it was you instead
So I second-guess
Is it really for the best?
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
You're the only love I've ever really known
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
It isn't easy learning how to be alone
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
You're the only love I've ever really known
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
It isn't easy learning how to be alone
I've got to try and find my way out on my own
Where your jacket used to hang
Left your lighter, but I lost it
Now there's nothing of you here
And it's hard to catch my breath
When I'm not sure what comes next
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
You're the only love I've ever really known
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
I've got to find out who I am now that you're gone
It isn't easy learning how to be alone
And I've been checking on the weather out in California, ay
And I imagine what it's like there where you are
It's not much warmer now than it was right when we first met
Driving 'round those upstate back roads in your car
And it's hard to catch my breath
When I'm not sure what comes next
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
You're the only love I've ever really known
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
I've got to find out who I am now that you're gone
It isn't easy learning how to be alone
And I think it hurts the most
When I'm alone in my bed
I fall asleep next to your ghost
Wishing it was you instead
So I second-guess
Is it really for the best?
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
You're the only love I've ever really known
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
It isn't easy learning how to be alone
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
You're the only love I've ever really known
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
It isn't easy learning how to be alone
I've got to try and find my way out on my own
