To Be Alone with You Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'd swim across Lake Michigan
I'd sell my shoes
I'd give my body to be back again
In the rest of the room

[Hook]
To be alone with you

They took your clothes
You gave up a wife and a family

You went up on a tree

[Bridge]
To be alone with me
You went up on a tree

[Outro]
I've never known a man who loved me
