I was knocking on the wrong damn doors for ages
On the nightshift looking for a brighter day
Every single sweetheart's face had faded
They'd decided there was not much left to say.

[Chorus:]
I was guilty for sure, lost in the war
Can't face the world alone
You washed up ashore, wasn't lost anymore
Can't face the world alone.

Can't face the world alone
Can't face the world alone.

All the things they promise me sound amazing
Grass is always meaner on the other side
Living like a lost soul did my brain in
You found me and I had no place to hide.

[Chorus]

Don't live your life a maybe
There's somebody out there waiting now
Who'll break it down
And build you up again
No ifs or maybes
Don't let em call you crazy
Aim for a blue sky gazing
We settle down
Can't face the world alone
The world alone.

The world alone
The world alone
The world alone
Can't face the world alone.

Don't live your life a maybe
There's somebody out there waiting now
Who'll break it down
And build you up again
No ifs or maybes
Don't let em call you crazy
Aim for a blue sky gazing
We settle down
Can't face the world alone
The world alone.

The world alone
The world alone
The world alone
Can't face the world alone.
