You Are Not Alone
X-Factor Final 12 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

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

'Lone, 'lone
Why, 'lone

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

Another day has gone
Time has passed by

I'm still all alone
I am still solitary

How could this be
I am in disbelief of my loneliness

You're not here with me
I miss your presence

You never said goodbye
You left without a farewell

Someone tell me why
I am asking for an explanation

Did you have to go
I am questioning the necessity of your departure

And leave my world so cold
Your absence lingers and makes me feel isolated

Everyday I sit and ask myself
I contemplate on a daily basis

How did love slip away
I am wondering how our love vanished

Something whispers in my ear and says
I am hearing a voice in my head
