LYRICS

Tonight with another I'm dancing

And we're smiling at the rest of the crowd

But I can't help wondering about you

And your new love of whom you're so proud

At night I'm never alone

I'm afraid that I'll weaken and phone

And I'm afarid that you will be gone

I'm with a crowd but oh so alone

I still have the picture you gave me

You signed it with love, you'll recall

And the one of me that you wanted

Isn't now hanging face to the wall?

At night I'm never alone

I'm afraid that I'll weaken and phone

And I'm afarid that you will be gone

I'm with a crowd but oh so alone

As long as I can keep smiling

Maybe I can fool the world, don't you see?

And perhaps some day I'll forget you

And lose this heartache that you left with me

At night I'm never alone

I'm afraid that I'll weaken and phone

And I'm afarid that you will be gone

I'm with a crowd but oh so alone
