Not A Soul Left Alone, But Me



Alone, Forever I'll Be
Because No One Can Take The Real Me
And I'm Fine With That, I Really Am
Love Can Do Its Magic On Others Instead
I'm Lonely For A Good Cause
Others Can Have Their Sweet Dolls
Valentine's Day Is A Day For Lollipops For Me
Everyone Else That's A Different Story
And I Understand That It's Different For Everyone
But Please, Don't Leave Anyone
People Need Love, But I'll Be Fine
Because I Don't Want A Broken Heart At The End Of The Line
So Give Them Your Best
I Don't Need This Test
For I Will Forever Stay Out Of This Zone
I Am Forever Alone
I Am Fine
And Though Curiosity Dangles On A String, A Vine
I Will Try
Once, Twice, Or Three Times
"Jeg Elskede Deg" A Phrase I Will Probably Never Say
For People Will Never Think That Kind Of Way
"I Love You Too" Is The Same As "What Am I Supposed To Do"
Probably The Way I Always Fall
Because Nothing Is Quite As Tall
Then My Lack of Self Assurance.
