Artist/Band: Everything But the Girl
Lyrics for Song: All Alone (No One To Be With)
Lyrics for Album: Back To Mine [2001]



As a youth, each Sunday, Dawn went to church and



Paid her respects and not to mention was a virgin



Kid pushed up, Dawn lettin' him



Since he made her laugh and all the other girls was sweatin' him



Then things started to move without cause



And a couple o' months later kid's pushin' for the drawers



Under pressure while exchangin' glances



Dawn finally gives in to the sexual advances



Although it was a mad high cost for her



?Cuz after the thrill was gone, so was the lust for her



Eventually he left her for another



Now feeling alone and betrayed by her lover



She cried for no longer knew which way she headed



Once dreamed of actually wearing white at her wedding



And really being pure, now she thought she'd die without



Still she finds strength to continue with her life without



Love



Without love



Without love



Without love



Verse two of Dawn's life the second segment



What could be worse than to now find out you're pregnant?



Poor Dawn couldn't sleep laid awake



Not ready for a child and plus her mother's gonna break



As she doesn't know how she's gonna bring up the subject



Consequences of being used as an object



In church though time's runnin' thin



She decides to have the child because the doesn't want to sin



Props to the girl although it hit hard times



It was hell finishin' school and working part-time



Yet Dawn did it though her youth went to waste



Little help from the government, she got her own place



Hard for an independent woman and a kid



And as soon as she could get off the assistance, she did



Without no man who she once thought she'd die without



Still she finds the strength to continue with her life without



Love



Life without love



Life without love



Continue with her life without love



While Dawn worked two jobs tryin' to meet ends



Her son was busy cuttin' school and hangin' with his friends



So when she got words she tried to slap out the taste in his mouth



And explain how important education is



Under stress, she takes two bufferin'



Son now tired of seein' his poor mother sufferin'



Starts to sell drugs though the cops did a raid



Guess who's in the mix, and being legal age



Could do time, please call her employer



To inform her that her son is gonna' need a lawyer



Never no good news, just more strife



Dawn barely havin' enough time to live her own life



Here's the judge's sentence, beggin' and pleadin'



Now spends nine hours on the bus to go and see him



Here's the judge's sentence, beggin' and pleadin'



Now spends nine hours on the bus to Goa and see him



Without no man who she once thought she'd die without



Still she finds the strength to continue with her life without



Love



Life without love



Life without love



Life without love



Continues life without love
