I am alone But adored by 100,000 more Then I said when you were the last. And I have known love, like a whore From at least 10,000 more Then I swore when you were the last When you were the last high High High High You were awake, And I should have stayed, but wandered. I was only out for a day. Out for a day. It was Chicago for a moment, And then it was Paris and London for a few Days. Well, I am alone But adored by 100,000 more Then I swore when you were the last. When you were the last high High High High Well I was the first to have spoken And I said just about all of the things you shouldn't say. So maybe you loved me, but now maybe you don't. And maybe you'll call me. Maybe you won't. So, I am alone But adored by 100,000 more Then I said when you were the last. And I have known love, like a whore From at least 10,000 more Then I swore when you were the last. When you were the last high High High High When you were the last high High High High
