Alone In This World

Faith Evans · Faithfully [2005]

It's over now, I can't compete

I don't know how I'm still standing on my feet

So turned around and incomplete

I'm not that happy woman that I used to be



Oh, please tell me what did you mean

When you said that you were mine, you knew that was a line

But in your heart you know the truth

And I'm trying to forget

All the things you put me through (Oh baby)



I never thought you'd turn your back

And walk away from love like that

While I was holding on to you

All you did was let me go



I never thought I would regret

The way I felt when we first met

And now I'm standing here

Alone in this world, alone



It's over now, we can't go on

In my eyes I thought that you could do no wrong

It's no surprise we both belong

Because of you my heart's singing a sad song



Oh, please tell me what did you mean

When you said that you were mine, you knew that was a line

But in your heart you know the truth

And I'm trying to forget

All the things you put me through (Oh baby)



I never thought you'd turn your back

And walk away from love like that

While I was holding on to you

All you did was let me go



I never thought I would regret

The way I felt when we first met

And now I'm standing here

Alone in this world, alone



I can't believe our love is over now

Where did love go

And why did I believe that we would be together forever

Now it's all a memory



I never thought you'd turn your back

And walk away from love like that

While I was holding on to you

All you did was let me go



I never thought I would regret

The way I felt when we first met

And now I'm standing here

Alone in this world, alone



I never thought you'd turn your back

And walk away from love like that

While I was holding on to you

All you did was let me go



I never thought I would regret

The way I felt when we first met

And now I'm standing here

Alone in this world, alone
