Wrote a song so long ago About a woman I never know Long hair and deep blue eyes I asked her name and she walked on by But I'm still wondering, stumbling around No one never hears me screaming out Might as well just walk around the town, yeah And now my shadow walks right by my side Only friend that I'ma see tonight Wonder if I'll let her see the sign, yeah But she's gotta hold on to me And she took the soul out of me I don't wanna, I don't wanna go, I don't wanna leave I don't wanna be better on my own I don't wanna go, I can never leave But I really think you're better off alone ♪ Better off alone ♪ And now my drinking days are over I promise l'd be sober And I hope I see you this time around That's why my shadow walks right by my side Only friend that I'ma see tonight Wonder if I'll let her see the sign, yeah But she's gotta hold on to me And she took the soul out of me I don't wanna, I don't wanna go, I don't wanna leave I don't wanna be better on my own I don't wanna go, I can never leave But I really think you're better off alone ♪ Better off alone ♪ Better off alone (Better off alone) (Oh-oh)
