[Verse 1]
Boy when out on a boat tonight, waiting on his lover
Seen his mermaid bride in the moonlight and the arms of another
[Instrumental Break]
[Pre-Chorus]
She said, "Standing on the water is easier to do
Than to try and be a family living here with you"
[Chorus]
And the more I've been thinking
The more I know
You know I'm living
Alone
Alone
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
Now they see him out on the water waves, rolling on the foam
Only memories for a future, only an ocean for a home
[Instrumental Break]
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause Amelia's the name that she calls herself these days
And, "Birds! Birds!", is all we heard before she flew away
[Chorus]
And the more I've been thinking
The more I know
You know I'm living
Alone
Alone
Alone
Alone
