I was a midnight rider on a cloud of smoke
  I could make a woman hang on every single stroke
  I was an iron man
  I had a master plan
  But I was alone
    I could hear you breathing
  With a sigh of the wind
  I remember how your body started trembling
  Oh, what's a night it's been
  And for the state I'm in
  I'm still alone
    And all the wonders made for the Earth
  And all the hearts in all creation
  Somehow I always end up alone
  Always end up alone
    So I play, I'll wait
  'Cause you know that love takes time
  We came so far
  Just the beat of a lonely heart
  And it's mine
  I don't want to be alone
    Well, since I got no message on your answer phone
  And since you're busy every minute.
  I just stay at home
  I make believe you care
  I feel you everywhere
  But I'm still alone
    I'm on a wheel of fortune with a twist of fate
  'Cause I know it isn't heaven, is it love or hate
  Am I the subject of the pain
  An I the stranger in the rain
  I am alone
    And if there glory there to behold
  Maybe it's my imagination
  Another story there to be told
    So I play, I'll wait
  And I pray it's not too late
  We came so far
  Just a beat of a lonely heart
  And it's mine
  I don't want to be alone
    And all the wonders made for the Earth
  And all the hearts in all creation
  Another story there to be told
    So I play, I'll wait
  And I pray it's not too late
  We came so far
  Just a beat of a lonely heart
  And it's mine
  I don't want to be alone
    Gone, but not out of sight
  I'm caught in the rain and there's no one home
  Face the heat of the night
  The one that you love's got a heart that's made of stone
    Shine and search for the light
  And sooner or later you'll be cruising on your ocean
    And clean out of sight
  I'm caught in the rain and there's no one home
