I like to wake alone To lie and turn to stone Comfort me, come to me I won't go on I like to walk alone To keep my head screwed on Well I'm the best, so well done me I won't go on Believing, believing I believe You might stumble and Come closer now If I stay I'm alone If I go then it will mean Waiting on my own It's the pattern of my life When you care and you cannot feel And you know that it's for real So you leave me on my own To live the pattern of my life Take time to be All this and more to me Well you're the best So well done you I won't go on Believing, believing I believe You might turn from your love, Wait around If I go I'm alone If I stay it will mean Waiting on my own It's the pattern of my life When you care and you cannot feel When you know that it's for real So you leave me on my own To live the pattern of my life
