Alone (Funkyman Mix)

[Intro: Stephen Simmonds] I said, oh no It's all I know, yeah Yeah, dun [Verse 1: Stephen Simmonds] My fate has been sealed, my fate has been shown It's left me no shield, it's left me alone The lonely one's weak, but doesn't lay down The lonely one speaks when no one's around It's cold when you're outside and warm when you're in I've followed my instincts, so life is my sin Love is my witness, love is my truth Lord is the judge for me and for you [Chorus: Stephen Simmonds] Alone It's so hard to live Alone I know I can't be positive Alone I got no place to call My home [Verse 2: Stephen Simmonds] And I got no friends to call, oh no The day turns to night, the night turns to day I can't tell the white or black from the grey Can't tell the white from the black I can't tell the black from the grey Maybe I shouldn't, maybe I should Maybe I couldn't, maybe I could Don't know, but maybe I should, lady, if you only could Lend me some time so I can explain Show me a sign and release my pain Outside, there's nothing but rain Inside there's nothing but pain If you approve, then it will be I won't leave you if you won't leave me Oh, you don't leave me [Chorus: Stephen Simmonds] Alone It's so hard to live Alone I know I can't be positive Alone I got no place to call My home And I can't... [Verse 3: Big L & Stephen Simmonds] Bust it, I need somebody I can call my own To call my home, 'cause basically I'm all alone (Oh no) Like a only child, sitting quiet with a phony smile Use to have friends but I'm lonely now And uh, my every morning, noon and nights are gray And uh, it's kind of hard to live my life this way I need someone who's true without the games and the funny ways Someone who can turn my rainy nights into sunny days [Verse 4: Marquee] In the Avalon, zoning out to Sarah Vaughan Puffing on some marijuan' 'cause everything I had is gone Days is dismal, now it's all crystal Used to lie, hide your pistol Wish I blew the whistle, barely missed you Since you left me, no longer sex me Straight up neglect me, can't even call and check me Feel so ashamed, that's aight 'cause now I know the game Sitting here, looking at your picture in this broken frame [Outro: Stephen Simmonds] If you can't, then no one can save me I'm tired of waiting now, baby You gotta let me know, gotta let me know, you gotta let me know Alone If you can't, then no one can save me You gotta let me know now, baby Alone You gotta let me know, gotta let me know, you gotta let me know
