You Are Not Alone
Michael Sarver Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm still all alone
How could this be
You're not here with me
You never said goodbye
Someone tell me why
Did you have to go
Everyday I sit and ask myself
How did love slip away?
Something whispers in my ear
And says
That you are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay
For you are not alone
I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart
For you are not alone, alone, why
Just the other night
I thought I heard you cry
Asking me to come
And hold you in my arms
I can hear your prayers
Your burdens I will bear
But first I need your hand
Then forever can begin
Everyday I sit and ask myself
How did love slip away
Something whispers in my ear
And says
You are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay
(I'm here, I'm here, I'm here)
For you are not alone
(You are not alone)
I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart
For you are not alone
Whisper three words then I'll come running, hey
(I'll come running)
And boy you know that I'll be there
I'll be there
You are not alone
For I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay
(I am here to stay)
For you are not alone
I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart
(You're in my heart)
You are not alone
(You are not alone)
I am here with you
(I'm here for you)
Though we're far away
I am here to stay
You are not alone
I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart
For you are not alone
You are not alone

Line by Line Meaning
Another day has gone
A day has passed since you left
I'm still all alone
I am lonely without you
How could this be
I cannot believe you're gone
You're not here with me
I miss your presence beside me
You never said goodbye
You left without notifying me
Someone tell me why
I need to know the reason you left
Did you have to go
I wonder if you had a choice to leave
And leave my world so cold
Your departure has made my life sad and empty
Everyday I sit and ask myself
I keep thinking and reflecting on the past
How did love slip away?
I cannot understand how our love ended
Something whispers in my ear
I feel a barely perceptible voice in my mind
And says
The voice tells me
That you are not alone
You are not alone in my thoughts
For I am here with you
I am always with you in my heart
Though you're far away
Even if you're physically distant
I am here to stay
I am committed to you forever
For you are not alone
You are not alone in your loneliness
Though we're far apart
Despite the distance between us
You're always in my heart
You are always in my thoughts and feelings
Just the other night
Recently
I thought I heard you cry
I imagined hearing you weep
Asking me to come
Inviting me to be with you
And hold you in my arms
And comfort you with my embrace
I can hear your prayers
I can sense your hopes and wishes
Your burdens I will bear
I will share and help you carry your hardships
But first I need your hand
But you need to reach out to me first
Then forever can begin
Then we can start our everlasting journey together
Whisper three words then I'll come running, hey
Just say 'I love you' and I'll come to you immediately
And boy you know that I'll be there
You know that I'll always be there for you
I'll be there
I promise to be there for you
You are not alone
You are not by yourself
I am here with you
I am here, supporting you
You're always in my heart
You occupy a special place in my heart
You are not alone
I am here for you
