Alone by Heart
[Verse]
In 1987
A band called Heart
Released a power ballad
That topped the charts
The song's called "Alone"
And the music is fine
But really it’s those lyrics
That are truly sublime
So I decided
I would make an endeavor
And memorize the words
So I'd know them forever
On my own steam
With nobody's help
This was something I needed to do for myself
So I holed up in my room and went hermit
Tried ’till cried
Determined to learn it
And then one day
I came out of my cell
I was thin with a really long beard
And I smelled
But God, I had done it
I learned every part
Of "Alone", by Heart
Alone, by heart
[Chorus]
'Till now
I always got by on my own
I never really cared until I met you
(I know the whole fucking thing I'll keep going)
And now it chills me to the bone
"Alone", by Heart
Alone, by heart
I learned it alone
I learned it...
By heart
