Cm   G#  Bb   Cm 
 
Cm         G#              Bb          Bb7/G#            Cm           G#    Bb   G 
I hear the ticking of the clock, I'm lying here the room's pitch dark 
 
Cm         G#              Bb         Bb7/G#           Cm          G#   Bb   G 
I wonder where you are tonight, no answer on your telephone 
 
          G#        Eb/G       G#/F       Eb/G 
And the night goes by so very slow 
 
      G#                  Eb/G        G#/F      Bbsus4 (Bb) 
Oh I hope that it won't end so...

All alone

    Till now, I always got by on my own 
 
Fm  C#              G#            Eb 
    I never really cared until I met you 
 
Fm  C#         G#               Eb 
    And now it chills me to the bone

    How do I get you alone

You don't know how long I have wanted, 
          Bb7/G#            Cm           G#    Bb   G 
       to touch your lips and hold you tight. 
Cm         G#              Bb 
You don't know how long I have waited, 
          Bb7/G#            Cm           G#    Bb   G 
       and I was gonna tell you tonight. 
        G#        Eb/G       Fm7          Eb 
But the secret is still my own, 
        G#            Eb/G       Fm7             Bbsus4  (Bb) 
And my love for you is still unknown 
      Eb 
All alone
