Alone
Lyrics & Music by: Carly Simon

My goin' has nothing to do with you
I'm planning a trip all alone
And all I want is a room with a view
Where the sight of the sunset full blown
Makes me ache with feeling alone

And I'll think about you there
If I do some thinkin'
And I'll care about you there
As it's love I've known
It's not to leave you that I'm goin'
I'm just goin' to be alone

It seems that I'm hearing those noises again
The voices, once small, now have grown
Flashbacks keep sending me way back to when
The sounds of the waves on the stones
Make me ache with feelin' alone

And I'll think about you there
If I do some thinkin'
And I'll care about you there
As it's love I've known
It's not to leave you that I'm goin'
I'm just goin' to be alone

It seems that I'm hearing those noises again
The voices, once small, now have grown
Flashbacks keep sending me way back to when
The sounds of the waves on the stones
Make me ache with feelin' alone
