I’m Not Alone Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Can you stay up for the weekend
And blame God for looking too old?
Can you find all that you stand for
Has been replaced with mountains of gold?

You can untrain yourself to notice
To feel pain and swallow fear
But can you stay up for the weekend
'Til next year?

[Pre-Chorus]
God, I can’t do this any more
Though I'll be laid down on the floor
As many feet walk through the door
I’m not alone

[Instrumental Chorus]

[Verse 2]
If I see a light flashing, could this mean that I’m coming home?
If I see a man waving, does this mean that I’m not alone?
If I see a light flashing, could this mean that I’m coming home?
If I see a man waving, does this mean that I’m not alone? No

[Instrumental Chorus]
[Verse 3]
If I see a light flashing, could this mean that I’m coming home?
If I see a man waving, does this mean that I’m not alone?
If I see a light flashing, could this mean that I’m coming home?
If I see a man waving, does this mean that I’m not alone? No

[Instrumental Chorus]

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

The lead single of Harris' second album is his ode to the beautiful loneliness of club life and the impossibility of sustaining the solitary lifestyle of endless partying. “I’m Not Alone” marked a transition in his career from what the BBC termed as “sombre lyric and acoustic strum to massive big beats”.

First premiered on Radio 1 as Pete Tong’s “essential new tune” in January 2009, it became his first solo single to top the UK Singles Chart and reached the top 5 in Belgium, Ireland, Scotland, and Denmark.
