This is the first time on my own

This is the first time I've ever been alone like this

The silence covers wall to wall

I never knew how suddenly the night can fall

Far away

I can here the city screams

Drift away

I could be beside you in my dreams

[Chorus:]

In another world

I could walk away

Pretend there was nothing

I wouldn't need you anyway

In another world

But not in this world

I have no stronghold to defend

But still my heart is outside, beating at the door again

No promises to make or keep

And though I'm free to go

I end up chasing sleep again

Drift away

Wonder if you think of me

Yesterday, is the place I'm going endlessly

[Chorus]

And though I realize the truth

Is not idealized in you

Why should I be surprised to find

That you are always on my mind

[Chorus 2x]

This is the first time on my own

This is the first time I've ever been alone like this

The silence covers wall to wall

I never knew how suddenly the night can fall

Far away

I can here the city screams

Drift away

I could be beside you in my dreams

[Chorus]

In another world

But not in this world

I have no strong hold to defend

But still my heart is outside, beating at the door again

No promise to make or keep

One thought I'm free to go

I end up chasing sleep again

Drift away

Wonder if you think of me

Yesterday, is the place I'm going endlessly

[Chorus]

And though I realize the truth

Is not that I desire in you

Why should I be surprised to find

That you are always on my mind

[Chorus 2x]

This is the first time on my own

This is the first time I ever been alone like this

This is the first time I ever been alone like this
