All By Myself
Shirley Bassey · Other Songs - Shirley Bassey
was just for fun Those days are gone Living alone I
think of all the friends I've known But when I dial
the telephone Nobody's home All by myself Don't wanna
be All by myself anymore All by myself Don't wanna
live All by myself anymore Hard to be sure Some times
I feel so insecure And love so distant and obscure
Remains the cure All by myself Don't wanna be All by
myself anymore All by myself Don't wanna live All by
myself anymore When I was young I never needed anyone
And making love was just for fun Those days are gone
All by myself Don't wanna be All by myself anymore
All by myself Don't wanna live All by myself anymore
All by myself Don't wanna be All by myself anymore
All by myself Don't wanna live All by myself anymore
