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
