Billy Joel I Don`t Want To Be Alone Billy Joel Lyrics

I Don`t Want To Be Alone    Billy Joel Lyrics

She said she'd meet me in the bar

At the Plaza Hotel

"Wear a jacket and a tie"

"What's the occasion?"

She just smiled and she wouldn't say why

So here I am standing, waiting in the lobby

Sweating bullets in this stupid old suit

And when she sees me she busts out laughing

"You're a sad sight honey, but you look so cute" and



I don't want to be alone anymore

I was checking you out

I was just making sure

No, I don't want to be alone anymore

And, I want you tonight

Although you hurt me before

It didn't matter that I felt like a fool

'Cause I forgot when she walked through the door

I said I'm sorry, but she said it was cool

And I don't want to be alone anymore



It's so confusing choosing sides

In the heat of the moment

Just to see if it's real

It's so erotic having you

Tell me how it should feel

But I'm avoiding all the hard cold facts

That I've got to face

So ask me just one question

When this magic night is through

Could it have been just anyone

Or did it have to be you

And, will you still be saying--



I don't want to be alone anymore

I was checking you out

I was just making sure

No, I don't want to be alone anymore

And, I want you tonight

Although you hurt me before

It didn't matter that I felt like a fool

'Cause I forgot when she walked through the door

I said I'm sorry, but she said it was cool

And I don't want to be alone anymore



But, don't you know that it's wrong

It's wrong, it's wrong...

But like the song

Being caught by the wink of an eye

I can't be sure we'll get along

But I'm willing to try

As long as you can tell me--



I don't want to be alone anymore

I was checking you out

I was just making sure



No, I don't want to be alone anymore

And, I want you tonight

Although you hurt me before

It didn't matter that I felt like a fool

'Cause I forgot when she walked through the door

I said I'm sorry, but she said it was cool

And I don't want to be alone anymore
