"Alone" lyrics

i went to the park with a coffee and a croissant
sat down on a bench and wondered "where'd i go wrong"
all the young girls on the grass reading books
and the office workers coming out for their lunch

and this boy's alone...

i went to the bar with four of my friends
they sat down in pairs and i sat down at the end
it don't matter how it's rearranged
it always comes out the same

this boy's alone...

got back to my apartment and i turned on the light
the cats on my sofa and the books on my shelf
are all the company i keep
and that's all the company that i need

this boy's alone...
