[00:01.36]Scared To Be Alone - Dory Previn
[00:05.48]We never stop to wonder
[00:10.81]Till a person's gone
[00:15.35]We never yearn
[00:16.58]To know him
[00:18.26]Till he's travelled on
[00:23.54]When someone is around us
[00:29.02]We never stop to ask
[00:33.36]Hey what's behind your mirror
[00:37.76]Hey who's beneath your mask
[00:43.95]We never stop to wonder
[00:49.2]Till a person's gone
[00:53.94]We never yearn
[00:55.29]To know him
[00:57.11]Till he's packed
[00:59.11]And travelled on
[01:04.66]Sweet Marilyn Monroe
[01:09.3]On the silver screen
[01:14.01]Platinum reflection
[01:17.59]In a movie magazine
[01:22.03]Well did you ever
[01:24.46]Have a headache
[01:26.91]Did your mama own a grama phone
[01:31.7]Did you like to be an actress
[01:36.369995]Were you scared
[01:41.240005]To be alone
[01:46.64]We never stop to wonder
[01:51.740005]Till a person's gone
[01:56.31]We never yearn
[01:58.020004]To know him
[01:59.55]Till he's travelled on
[02:04.81]When someone is around us
[02:09.89]We don't know what we're seeing
[02:14.7]We take a polaroid picture
[02:18.87]To find the human being
[02:25.34]We never stop to wonder
[02:30.78]Till a person's gone
[02:35.2]We never yearn
[02:37.24]To know him
[02:38.97]Till he's packed
[02:40.89]And travelled on
[02:46.48]Sweet beautiful Jesus
[02:50.89]On a painted cross
[02:55.45]Polystyrene body
[02:58.83]With a superficial gloss
[03:03.31]Then were you jealous on your mom
[03:07.92]Were you short
[03:09.19]When you were fully grown
[03:12.47]Did you like to walk on water
[03:16.84]Were you scared
[03:21.64]To be alone
[03:27.5]I think perhaps tomorrow
[03:32.34]I'll try to make a friend
[03:36.74]To really get
[03:38.07]To know him
[03:39.65]Instead of pretend
[03:45.58]I'll ask him if his feet hurt
[03:50.19]Has he burdens to be shared
[03:55.7]And if he doesn't walk away
[03:59.74]I'll ask him
[04:01.21]If he's scared
[04:06.09]And if he doesn't walk away
[04:10.64]If his eyes don't
[04:12.37]Turn to stone
[04:16.02]I'll ask him
[04:17.06]If he's scared
[04:23.83]To be alone
