The ultimate song for people who are in love, but afraid to tell the person and how alone that can make you feel. As a relatively independent person, falling in love was the very last thing I wanted to happen. As the chorus states, it is a shock to the system to lose that sense of independence. Two other Heart songs follow this same idea, "Stranded" and "I Didn't Want To Need You", but I believe this song says it best.
I hear the ticking of the clock I'm lying here the room's pitch dark I wonder where you are tonight No answer on the telephone And the night goes by so very slow Oh I hope that it won't end though Alone Till now I've always got by on my own I never really cared until I met you And now it chills me to the bone How do I get you alone How do I get you alone You don't know how long I have wanted To touch you lips and hold you tight - oh You don't know how long I have waited And I was going to tell you tonight But the secret is still my own And my love for you is still unknown Alone Ohhh Till now I always got by on my own I never really cared until I met you And now it chills me to the bone How do I get you alone How do I get you alone How do I get you alone How do I get you alone Alone Alone
