I don't believe in multiple love.
Once I had gold and we left it to rust.
So maybe there's two, and maybe it's you,
But I don't go quietly into the blue, ‘cos

I am happy alone.
I am happy alone, and I don't
Need another half when I am whole.
But maybe, persuade me;
And I'll do the best that I can. Oh.

I don't believe in wasting your time;
Trying hard when I know it's not right.
So let's call it quits
While we're still playing nice.
And if you remember at christmas, still write, but

I am happy alone.
I am happy alone, and I don't
Need another half ‘cos I am whole
But maybe, persuade me
And I'll do the best that I can.

Oh, I'll do the best that I can. Oh.
I still believe in love at first sight.
A skip of your heart and a flicker of light.
So maybe there's two and maybe it's you.
But I don't go quietly into the blue, ‘cos

I am happy alone.
I am happy alone, and I don't
Need another half if I am whole
But maybe, persuade me,
And I'll do the best that I can
Oh, I'll do the best that I can. Oh.
