Not Alone
Family Force 5 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Miles apart
I'm touching you from a distance
Holding fast
I can't last
It's killing me cause I need you
It'll be okay
Just knowing that you're listening
Yeah I'm holding back the tears right now
Just tell me that I'm not alone
'Cause I don't hurt when you say it
I hear your words, I can make it
I need you now, I want you now
To tell me that I'm not alone
Tell me that I'm not alone
Tell me that I'm not alone
My greatest fear is losing you
Never wanna be the one to fail you
There's no doubt, I'm missing out
I'm not there, but I should be
I'm breathing in, I'm breathing in
I Know, know
Knowing that you're listening
Yeah I'm holding back the tears right now
Just tell me that I'm not alone
'Cause I don't hurt when you say it
I hear your words, I can make it
I need you now, I want you now
To tell me that I'm not alone
And you know that I can't wait
I Wait to see your face
I wonder why I ever leave
Whoa
You're the reason I don't break
And why I always say
You're where I wanna be
Closer than I'll ever be
'Cause I don't hurt when you say it
I hear your words, I can make it
I need you now, I want you now
To tell me that I'm not alone
'Cause I don't hurt when you say it
I hear your words, I can make it
I need you now, I want you now
To tell me that I'm not alone
'Cause I don't hurt when you say it
I hear your words, I can make it
I need you now, I want you now
To tell me that I'm not alone
Just tell me that I'm not alone
Just tell me that I'm not alone
Tell me, tell me
You tell me that I'm not alone
You tell me that I'm not alone

This song is 10 years old and I remember singing it when I was 8-10 years old. I was very isolated at the time and it was something that brings me comfort even now. 😊

My grandmother died yesterday morning to a heart attack. She was perfectly healthy when I left her house on Saturday morning and was happy and smiling. We lost her a week before her 55th birthday and I miss her tremendously. We were really close and I am mentally unstable right now because of my loss. This song cheered me up HUGELY and I just don't know what to do. This song helped me to not feel so betrayed by god for leaving me alone.

still will always be my actual favorite song. It means so much to me and how God was always there with me through the good and and bad, He was carrying me in the hard times when I only saw one set of footprints in the sand :')
