Somebody, somewhere turns off the lights

Somebody all alone faces the night

You got to be strong

When you're out on your own

'cause sooner or later

We all sleep alone

Nobody, nowhere holds the key to your heart

When love's a possession it'll tear you apart

You may have lovers wherever you roam

But sooner or later

We all sleep alone

The young and the young at heart waits

But the wait never ends in the soul

When you feel like it's all blown away

Independence has come

And into the night I go

Don't make no promises

That I can't keep

Won't be no prisoner

Of somebody's need

Well you may have lovers

Wherever you roam

But sooner or later

We all sleep alone

And I know, and I know

How you feel

What you're thinking

What you're saying to me

Cause we all sleep alone
