Carole King - We All Have To Be Alone lyrics

Once I told you without feeling

When you came to me in sorrow

There's a truth that life's revealing

We all have to be alone

You only wanted someone to hold you

Tell you she'd be there tomorrow

But instead I only told you

We all have to be alone

Then I was amazed to see

How quickly you agreed with me

If that's the way it has to be

There's nothing left to say

No reason left to stay

Besides I've got a lot of better things to do today

So my world grew so much colder

With little love to lend or borrow

And I found out as I grew older

We all have to be alone
