Lyrics
All alone am I ever since your goodbye
All alone with just a beat of my heart
People all around but I don’t hear a sound
Just the lonely beating of my heartNo use in holding other hands
For I’d be holding only emptiness
No use in kissing other lips
For I’d be thinking just of your caressAll alone am I ever since your goodbye
All alone with just a beat of my heart
People all around but I don’t hear a sound
Just the lonely beating of my heartNo other voice can say the words
My heart must hear to ever sing again
The words you used to whisper low
No other love can ever bring again.All alone am I ever since your goodbye
All alone with just a beat of my heart
People all around but I don’t hear a sound
Just the lonely beating of my heart
