You are not alone
R.Elliot Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Another day has gone
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
And leave my world so cold

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

You are not alone
I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart
You are not alone

All alone
Why, oh

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
So forever can begin

Everyday I sit and ask myself
How did love slip away
Then 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
And you are not alone

Whisper three words and I'll come runnin'
And girl you know that I'll be there
I'll be there

You are not alone
I am here with you
Though you'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

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
For I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart





For you are not alone

Overall Meaning

" You are not Alone" is a ballad by Michael Jackson that R. Kelly composed and produced. The song was released on August 15, 1995, as the second single from Jackson's ninth studio album, HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book I. The tune assisted Jackson in breaking numerous records in the United States and internationally. It was among the songs he performed on his HIStory World Tour, despite not containing a dance-based routine. According to R. Kelly, the "song is about a relationship between a man and a woman that has ended, with the man reassuring his former partner that he is still there for her."


The lyrics begin with the singer, stating that he is alone once again, and questioning why his partner left him without a verbal goodbye. While continuing in his solitude, he hears the voice telling him that he is not alone and that he is here with him. The lyrics imply that despite physical distance, love remains unchanged, and the singers' innermost feelings for his partner are still as intense. The chorus is the most repeatable, and it inspires a feeling of unity and togetherness. Additionally, the tune concludes with the singer reassuring his loved one that he will always be with her.

You are not alone ~lyrics~

Are you sick and tired of being lied to?
Getting kinda bored of being ignored?
Can't find the tribe that you belong to?
Oh my friend, you are not alone

Are you tired of begging for some answers?
Are you scared you won't make it out alive?
Does it make you sick when truth is censored?
My friend, you are not alone

[Chorus]
Oh you are not alone here, don't fear
You are not alone here, no way
There's plenty more others here yeah yeah
My friend, oh you are not alone

[Verse 2]
Are you tired of working for the minimum?
Has your heart adjusted to the dark?
Well does it make you sick they kill the innocent?
Oh my friend, you are not alone

Are you dreaming of a brighter future?
Oh somewhere the children can be free
Will you risk it all to tell the truth? Yeah
My friend, you are not alone

Oh you are not alone here, don't fear
You are not alone here, no way
There's plenty more others here yeah yeah

Are you sick of silencing your voice?
Do you still have hope that peace is possible?
Oh my friend, you are not alone

Oh you are not alone here, don't fear
You are not alone here, no way
There's plenty more others here yeah yeah
My friend, oh you are not alone

I read she was concerned she was getting overexposed in 2012 so I think she is happy floating a bit under the radar.
