Lyrics
A familiar place, she's alone again,
What's she done this time?
So much faith blown away again,
By another parting line.
She doesn't seem at all surprised,
So used to the rejection,
She'll have to wait for another friend
To add to her collection.
She's alone again, alone again,
She's alone again, she tried her best:
She's alone again, alone again,
She's alone again, she tried her best
But she's alone again.
A cafe scene, a window seat,
Behind a coffee and a book,
Every male passer by
Gets a second look.
It always goes the same old way,
Just a few months later:
Undying love has changed its mind
They can't wait to escape her.
She's alone again, alone again,
She's alone again, she tried her best:
She's alone again, alone again,
She's alone again, she tried her best
But she's alone again. All alone.
She's alone again, alone again,
She's alone again, she tried her best:
She's alone again, alone again,
She's alone again, she tried her best
But she's alone again. She's alone.
