All Alone
Nick 13 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
on a summer night like this the band played and drove home
im all alone in this world
a top writer in my mind writes our story in the air
pages they all vanished like the monents that we shared
im all alone is in this world
all alone is this worldoh where oh where is my little girl
a tattoo pen of ink spells her name upon my arm
im all alone is this world
theres a train a comin
there aint much to pack
im leavin this tonight and im never comin back
im alone in this world
all alone in this worldoh where oh wheres my little girl
its too much for me i gotta move along
its too much for me i cannot stay im gone
all alone in this world
oh where oh wheres my little girl
The lyrics of Nick 13's song "All Alone" revolve around a person who is feeling alone and nostalgic about lost love. The opening lines of the song, "if the trellas spinnes a record the niddle plays our song, on a summer night like this the band played and drove home," describe a scene where the person is reminiscing about a special moment they shared with their loved one. However, the rest of the song paints a picture of a person who has lost the love they once shared and is struggling to move on.
The person feels like they are all alone in the world and that the memories they shared with their special someone have vanished. The lyrics, "a top writer in my mind writes our story in the air, pages they all vanished like the moments that we shared," express the idea that although the person tries to hold on to the memories, they are slipping away like pages from a book. The line "where oh where is my little girl" conveys the person's sense of loss and their longing for their partner.
The song ends with the person deciding to leave and never come back. The lyrics, "its too much for me i gotta move along, its too much for me i cannot stay im gone," show that the person is unable to deal with the pain of losing their love and needs to move forward.

A victrola spins a record
The needle plays our song
On a summer night like this,
The band played and drove on
I'm all alone, in this world.
A typewriter in my mind
Writes our story in the air
Pages they all vanish,
Like the moments that we shared
I'm all alone, in this world.
All alone (all alone)
In this world
All alone (all alone)
In this world
Oh where oh where's my little girl?
A tattoo of indian ink
Spells her name upon my arm
F-o-r-e-v-e-r
Her love was here but now it's gone
I'm all alone, in this world

After a hell of a childhood I hoped to find 'her' and finally have a good life.
Now, being 41 and still hoping to find true love... being single and waiting all these years. Never found my soulmate. And always stayed true to my believe that I'll wait till misses right comes in my life.
Knowing lots of people, It never happened... I have to admit that I'm a rough looking guy. Life made me...
But a do have a very good heart and treat a lady well.
Anyway... alone... Nick, to be honoust, I cried many tears on this song. In fact, tears are rolling right now.
I have many friends... but till misses right comes.... and after all these years... I feel f....ng alone!
Thank you for sharing your feelings in your songs. It helps!!
Hope you find a great misses 13!!!

This guy has more country soul than all modern "artists" combined.

Have always really dug the more country songs Tiger Army put out; Outlaw Heart, In the Orchard, The Long Road. So to find out he dedicated an entire album to his love of country had me so stoked. What a track.

I have been looking for this song for years. I remember listening to it as a kid but could never remember enough lyrics to search for it, but I’m so glad I found it

Funny how a punk rock dude is doing better Country then most people I have heard in many moons past

For my personal taste punk took a dive 10 yrs ago. I still listen to what i already did and find diamonds once in a while but i've had to become quite eclectic over the last decade to make my daily musical intake quota.
