We sleep together, close and warm We calm each other through the storm We set up home, but in a while We're tempted by another's smile When it's all played out If the truth were known You have to learn to live alone We dance around the fading light You hold me closer every night You fell in love but I did not But in the end you're all I've got When it's all played out When the truth is known You have to learn to live alone We fly around the world too fast We cannot make one moment last We love the crowd, we sing and play We do it all, we get our way When it's all played out When the bird has flown You have to learn to live alone When we're all played out If the truth were known You have to learn to live alone
