Alone by Kate Sea Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Eight o’clock, that’s all I asked
Too much, I guess
Maybe I’d sound a little better with some time
But now’s not then, now’s never then
Fifty-four just on the dot, the steam rolls in
And my coach awaits
Maybe I’d be a little sweeter if I tried
But I don’t try, no, I never try
[Pre-Chorus 1]
But forty seconds on the phone and knew it was over then
Over right then and there
[Chorus]
Why don’t you feel the things I may?
Why don’t you take my breath away?
Why don’t you make a point to stay when I say go?
Why don’t I follow in your stride?
Why don’t I hate to say goodbye?
Why don’t I lock myself inside, condemned to be alone
[Verse 2]
Oh, call me back when you get free, I’m open now
My train ride home is long
Just promise when you hang up that I’ll stick around with you
Behind your eyes
Perhaps it’s me who’s out of touch, for lingering
It’s so easy when the other line goes dead to make things up
Fantasize
[Pre-Chorus 2]
But it all hit at the bench and I knew it was over then
Over right then and there
[Chorus]
Why don’t you feel the things I may?
Why don’t you take my breath away?
Why don’t you make a point to stay when I say go?
Why don’t I follow in your stride?
Why don’t I hate to say goodbye?
Why don’t I lock myself inside, condemned to be
[Bridge]
Oh won’t you take a side, a side
I tap my fingers as the hours tick by, tick by
Wouldn’t it be better for the both of us to quit while we’re ahead
Wouldn’t it be better to sink
[Chorus]
Why don’t you feel the things I may?
Why don’t you take my breath away?
Why don’t you make a point to stay when I say go?
Why don’t I follow in your stride?
Why don’t I hate to say goodbye?
Why don’t I lock myself inside, condemned to be alone
[Final Chorus]
Why don’t you feel the things I may?
Why don’t you take my breath away?
Why don’t you make a point to stay when I say go?
Why don’t I follow in your stride?
Why don’t I hate to say goodbye?
Why don’t I lock myself inside, condemned to be alone
Eight o’clock, that’s all I asked
Too much, I guess
Maybe I’d sound a little better with some time
But now’s not then, now’s never then
Fifty-four just on the dot, the steam rolls in
And my coach awaits
Maybe I’d be a little sweeter if I tried
But I don’t try, no, I never try
[Pre-Chorus 1]
But forty seconds on the phone and knew it was over then
Over right then and there
[Chorus]
Why don’t you feel the things I may?
Why don’t you take my breath away?
Why don’t you make a point to stay when I say go?
Why don’t I follow in your stride?
Why don’t I hate to say goodbye?
Why don’t I lock myself inside, condemned to be alone
[Verse 2]
Oh, call me back when you get free, I’m open now
My train ride home is long
Just promise when you hang up that I’ll stick around with you

Why don’t I follow in your stride?
Why don’t I hate to say goodbye?
Why don’t I lock myself inside, condemned to be
[Bridge]

Why don’t I hate to say goodbye?
Why don’t I lock myself inside, condemned to be alone
[Final Chorus]
Why don’t you feel the things I may?
Why don’t you take my breath away?
Why don’t you make a point to stay when I say go?
Why don’t I follow in your stride?
Why don’t I hate to say goodbye?
Why don’t I lock myself inside, condemned to be alone
