Lyrics

You’re not alone, I’m with you, I’m lonely too

What’s that song: can’t be sung by two

My broken home, a broken heart, isolated and afraid

CHORUS: Open up this is a raid, I want to get it through to you, you’re not alone.

You’re not alone, every night; I stand in your place. Every tear, on every face, tastes the same

My broken dream, a broken heart, isolated and afraid

CHORUS

An open hand, an open heart. There’s no need to be afraid

CHORUS

I want to get it through to you

You’re not alone

Gonna get it through to you, you’re not alone.
