I came down here just to sit and compare
Your loving with living alone
Because when I contemplate our many mistake
It's the loneliest feeling around, oh
Must be my ship's run aground
Because we've come apart from our lovely fresh start
And now it's only the remnants I've found
And these pieces I see are just the remnants of me
And it's the loneliest feeling around, oh
Must be my ship's run aground
Well, the moon, it shone like a thing all it's own
And the water reflected it's shine
And if we could be just like that, you and me
We could blow out the candles of time, yeah
We could blow out the candles of time
Ah, but we've come apart from our lovely fresh start
And now it's only the remnants I've found
And these pieces I see are just the remnants of me
And it's the loneliest feeling around, oh
Must be my ship's run aground
Oooh, I see you looking that way
Oooh, I see your face
But you don't have to turn the other cheek when I say
That I came down here just to sit and compare
Your loving with living alone, oh
Your loving with living
Your loving with living
Your loving with living alone
