[Intro]

When you're talkin' to yourself

And nobody's home

You can fool yourself

You came in this world alone, alone


[Chorus]

So nobody ever told you, baby

How it was gonna be?

What'll happen to you, baby?

Guess we'll have to wait and see

(One, two)


[Verse 1]

Old at heart, but I'm only 28

And I'm much too young to let love break my heart

Young at heart, but it's getting much too late

To find ourselves so far apart


[Bridge]

I don't know how you're s'posed to find me lately

And what more could you ask from me?

How could you say that I never needed you?

When you took everything

Said, you took everything from me

Hey, yeah


[Verse 2]

Young at heart, and it gets so hard to wait

When no one I know can seem to help me now

Old at heart, but I mustn't hesitate

If I'm to find my own way out


[Pre-Chorus]

Still, talkin' to myself

And nobody's home, alone


[Chorus]

So nobody ever told us, baby

How it was gonna be

What'll happen to us, baby?

Guess we'll have to wait and see


[Instrumental Break 03:38-05:21]


[Verse 3]

When I find out all the reasons

Maybe I'll find another way

Find another day

With all the changin' seasons of my life

Maybe I'll get it right next time

And now that you've been broken down

Got your head out of the clouds

Back down on the ground

And you don't talk so loud

And you don't walk so proud

Anymore and what for?


[Instrumental Break 06:01-06:33]


[Guitar Solo]


[Verse 4]

Well I jumped into the river

Too many times to make it home

I'm out here on my own

And drifting all alone

If it doesn't show

Give it time to read between the lines

'Cause I see the storm is getting closer

And the waves, they get so high

Seems everything we've ever known's here

Why must it drift away and die?


[Instrumental Break 07:25-08:22]


[Guitar Solo]


[Verse 5/Outro]

I'll never find anyone to replace you

Guess I'll have to make it through

This time

Woah, this time

Without you

I knew the storm was getting closer

And all my friends said I was high

But everything we've ever known's here

I never wanted it to die
