Not Alone Lyrics

[Intro]
It comes calling in the evening
When the temperature is dropping out
They said it don't get cold here
But I beg to differ now

[Verse 1]
There is something in the shadows
More than sister silhouette
Something sinister and strange
That I haven't seen yet

[Pre-Chorus]
And I don't want to be alone
Sky, don't let the sun go
I'm not ready for the darkness
Swear upon a heartless soul

[Chorus]
And I don't want to cry when you go
Stay a little longer, you know
You're making me feel
I'm not alone

[Verse 2]
You don't have to fight the bad guys
Throwing punches out into the black
If you have to tell me lies, I don't care
Just give me some good back
[Pre-Chorus]
And I don't want to be alone
Sky, don't let the sun go
I'm not ready for the darkness
Swear upon a heartless soul

[Chorus]
And I don't want to cry when you go
Stay a little longer, you know
You're making me feel
I'm not alone

[Verse 3]
And if I only worry about it
Worry about it, worry about it
I just keep breaking down
Breaking down, breaking down
Boy, I could do without
Do without, do without
A night of the bad dreams, sad things
Tell me what that means

[Pre-Chorus]
And I don't want to be alone
Sky, don't let the sun go
I'm not ready for the darkness
Swear upon a heartless soul
[Chorus]
And I don't want to cry when you go
Stay a little longer, you know
You're making me feel
I'm not alone

How to Format Lyrics:
