Your smiles they don't come easy

Like they used to come before 

The awkwardness and boredom

Is scattered out across the floor

I can feel your love waxin' and wanin'

And a quick look in your eyes needs no explainin'



I'm out on my own

Livin' alone



I'm an old reluctant gypsy

I don't like campin' anymore

And the dreams and disappointments

Scatter out across the floor

I'm nervous on this train I feel it derailin'

And I can read the letters that nobody's mailin'

I'm out on my own

Livin' alone yeah



Somethin' deep inside of me 

Must have died some time ago

I haven't called no place my home

Since nineteen-ninety-four

I'm out on my own



Thirty-somethin' single

And tired of runnin' everywhere

And I can wear a welcome out 

When I ain't even there

I'm nervous on this train I feel it derailin'

And I can read the letters that nobody's mailin'

I'm out on my own

Livin' alone I'm livin' alone

And I got nowhere to go

Look at me I'm out on my own

I'm out on my own

But it's gonna be all right now

It's gonna be all right 

It's gonna be all right

Oh yes I know it and I know and I know it's gonna be all right
