This song was first released on the some days are diamonds album. it is the only album it appears on.
For someone who��s got everything, life can still be rough
if things are what you��re lookin�� for, there��s never quite enough
and all the tea in china won��t make a house a home
you can be a millionaire and still be sleepin�� alone
There might be some one night stands to ease the pain inside
or someone you can call around if you��ve lost all your pride
please don��t be mistaken. i don��t mean to put that down
i know there��s times when anything is better than sleepin�� alone
Sleepin�� alone can make a bottle just about your dearest friend
sleepin�� alone can make you swear to god this night will never end
You know it��s not company you are lookin�� for
you know it��s not just pleasure, you know it��s somethin�� more
you know it��s not the answer if it��s not like comin�� home
if the one who��s there doesn��t really care, it��s worse than sleepin�� alone
Sleepin�� alone can make a bottle just about your dearest friend
sleepin�� alone can make you swear to god this night will never end
For someone who��s got everything, life can still be rough
if things are what you��re lookin�� for, there��s never quite enough
and all the gold that glitters won��t make a house a home
you can be a millionaire and still be sleepin�� alone
you might be a millionaire and still be sleepin�� alone
