  • I'd run the risk of losing everything
    Sell all my things, become nomadic
    I'd run the risk, and just in case, I might
    Sell all my things and become the night

    Oh, it's hard to believe
    It's even irrational for me
    I'm cynical, a mess
    I'm touch starved and shameless
    Mm-hmm

    But I'd rather be alone than a stranger
    You'd come visit me late at night
    I'd rather wake up alone than be reminded
    Of how it was a dream this time

    I'd run the risk of losing everyone
    I'd sail and say my phone was overboard
    I'd run the risk, and just in case, I might
    Take a ship around the world to find

    Oh, where you hid the key?
    It's even irrational for me
    It's chemical, obsessed
    I blame you for locking me in
    Mm-hmm, ah

    But I'd rather be alone than a stranger
    You'd come visit me late at night
    I'd rather wake up alone than be reminded
    Of how it was a dream this time

    It's always the same
    Always the same
    Every time I see someone new
    I just think of you, nothing I do
    Can help it now
    Guess I'll have to find

    That I'd rather be alone than a stranger
    You'd come visit me late at night
    I'd rather wake up alone than be reminded
    Of how it was a dream this time
    It was a dream this time
    It was a dream this time Writer/s: Claire Cottrill, Homer Steinweiss, Leon Michels, Nicholas Movshon
