I Wish We Could Be Alone

I wish we could be alone

So all of the world couldn't see

How much we have together

And how much you mean to me

I wish we could put out the flame

But oh, sweet baby

Tell me, would it be right?

I take the subway and you take the train

I got a husband and you got a wife

I wish we could love

And then not always have to pretend

I wish we could be alone, all alone

I wish we could be alone, all alone

I know it's not simple

But I know that it's strong

And I know it will never be easy

But I know it ain't wrong

I wish it could always be the way

It is when you're kissing me

I wish we could be alone, all alone

I wish we could be alone, all alone

And so we'll go on and on

Hiding out the way that we do

Keeping it from all of our friends

There ain't a nothing between us two

I wish we could hang about

And not worry who's giving in or out

I wish we could be alone, all alone

I wish we could be alone, all alone

I wish we could be alone, all alone
