Elton John - Can't Stay Alone Tonight

I blew the dust out of the corners
 Threw some dead wood on the fire
 Tuned the radio to silence
 Watched the evening sun expire

 Should have called you up this morning
 But I'm such a fool at times
 I still search my shaving mirror
 Looking for your face with mine

 And I can't stay alone tonight
 Can't let another day go by
 Why is it always this way?
 Time never seems to really fly
 And time is never really on my side
 And I can't stay alone tonight
 Things have to change and they might
 But I can't stay alone tonight

 Chalk up one more crazy notion
 Imagination running wild
 But if I needed confirmation
 I would have gone that extra mile

 You're the last chance on the highway
 I'm that open stretch of road
 You're the diner in my rear-view
 A cup of coffee getting cold


 And I can't stay alone tonight
 Can't let another day go by
 Why is it always this way?
 Time never seems to really fly
 And time is never really on my side
 And I can't stay alone tonight
 Things have to change and they might
 But I can't stay alone tonight

 Bruised in this cold war of words
 We've come undone two loose ends alone
 Possessed by that curse you've endured
 The spell that I cast couldn't make you come home

 And I can't stay alone tonight
 Can't let another day go by
 Why is it always this way?
 Time never seems to really fly
 And time is never really on my side
 And I can't stay alone tonight
 Things have to change and they might
 But I can't stay alone tonight
 Things have to change and they might
 But I can't stay alone tonight
