I hear the ticking of the clock I'm lying here the room's pitch dark I wonder where you are tonight No answer on the telephone And the night goes by so very slow Oh I hope that it won't end though Alone 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? You don't know how long I have wanted To touch your lips and hold you tight, oh You don't know how long I have waited And I was going to tell you tonight But the secret is still my own And my love for you is still unknown Alone 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? Tell me, how do I get you alone? How do I get you alone? Tell me, how do I get you alone? Alone, alone I hear the ticking of the clock I'm lying here the room's pitch dark
