           D             A 
I've been alone since I don't know when,

And I don't need another lover 
D                             A 
I just don't know if I could follow again,

It's been gettin' me down

And I never dreamt we could be,  
Em                        G          A 
Something happened and I can't walk away 
D                        A

I can't believe what I am feeling

And how could I know I'd be losing sleep,  
G                     G G/F# 
I'm not fooling around 
Em   A    Em                          A 
Hey baby, we need time to figure this out
