Back Here Alone Again

A traditional country song lyric, in 3/4 time

————

I slowly realize it’s morning

I struggle to come full awake

The pain that I feel

Is now and real

My bones and my heart all ache


I half stand, and fall, from my bed

Trip over clothes piled on the floor

I need me a drink

And I don’t want to think

That you’re not here with me no more


‘Cause try as I might

I’m all out of fight

I’ve lost track of where, or when

I ended up back here again

I’m back here, alone, again


I wander the early day sidewalks

Searching for where I should be

I don’t really know

Where else I can go

To get far away from me


‘Cause try as I might

I’m all out of fight

I’ve lost track of where, or when

I ended up back here again

I’m back here, alone, again


Time after time I’ve sung this same song

Time after time I’ve seen things go wrong

Time after time’s slipped right through my hands

I’ve given ‘bout all I can


‘Cause try as I might

I’m all out of fight

I’ve lost track of where or when

I ended up back here again

I’m back here, alone, again


I’m back here, alone, again
