And when it comes right down to it

We're really all alone

Unless we want someone to own

And run the life we live, oh me



To write a lonely night into a poem

Weave me a summer flight into a music

That I've loved and haven't known

Weave me a summer night into a winter fire

For I'm very far from warm



And when it comes right down to it

I'm happily alone

'Cause I don't want someone to own

And run the life I live, oh me



To walk a night into a day that has no reason

Walking past the house of someone else's season

Gazing at the light on the rim of a tightly closed door

Weave me inside before the winter and I wouldn't ask for more



And when it comes right down to it

We're really quite alone

Unless we want someone to own

And run the life we live



Repeat
