You always said that I'd be back again That I'd come running to you in the end I thought that you were on your own And now I find you're not alone (Not alone) I'll see you through the rain (Not alone) Through the heartache and pain (Not alone) It hurts like never before You're not alone any more You always said that I would know someday Just how it feels when your love walks away I let you down, I let you go I lost you, how was I to know? (Not alone) I'll see you through the rain (Not alone) Through the heartache and pain (Not alone) It hurts like never before You're not alone any more I never knew I could feel this way I never could see past yesterday You feel that everything is gone I feel it, too, you're not alone (Not alone) I'll see you through the rain (Not alone) Every heartache and pain (Not alone) It hurts like never before You're not alone You're not alone You're not alone any more Any more Any more
