When I'm Alone Lyrics - Singles - The Rifles

Every time I catch your eye in street lights 

Late at night when I walk you home 

I hate to think that you're not mine 

So then I try to make you feel I don't want you 

I don't want to go down that road 

We always get in a big fight 

It happens all the time 

So when I say that I'm just your friend 

And I'm willing to try 

No I won't carry on pretending it's all lie 

Because I smile when you're there 

But I cry when I'm all alone 

But it's far too hard to say to you "Don't go" 

Every time I hear your voice on the phone line 

Late at night when you're feeling low 

And you're telling me to come over 

It happens all the time 

So when I say that I'm just your friend and I'm willing to try 

No I won't carry on pretending it's all a lie 

Because I smile when you're there 

But I cry when I'm all alone 

But it's far too hard to say to you "Don't go"
