I wrote a song so long ago Oh, battle women I never known Long hair and deep blue eyes (Yeah, yeah) I asked her name when she walked on by
But I’m still wondering, stumbling around No one never hears me screaming out I just read this, walk around the time here And now my shadow walks right by my side Only friend that I’ma see in the night Wonder if I’ll ever see the sign
But she’s gotta hold on to me And she took the soul out of me I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna go, I don’t wanna leave I don’t wanna be better on my own I don’t wanna go, I can never leave But I really think you’re better off alone
Better off alone (I don’t wanna go)
And now my drinking days are over I promise that I’ll be sober And I hope I see this time around
And now my shadow walks right by my side Only friend that I’ma see in the night Wonder if I’ll ever see the sign
But she’s gotta hold on to me And she took the soul out of me I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna go, I don’t wanna leave I don’t wanna be better on my own I don’t wanna go, I can never leave But I really think you’re better off alone
