[Intro: Active]
Na na na na
Na na na
Oh
Mhm

I
I know I know
I’m all alone
I’m on my own
Uh

[Chorus: Active]
I
I know I know
I’m all alone
I’m on my own
I know I know
I’m on the low
I’m on my own
My own

[Verse 1: RikShaw]
Ooh, tell me, what you want from me?
(Yeah, yeah)
Girl would you wait for me?
(Would you wait for me?)
This is all that I can see
(Yeah, yeah)
You can come through late night, girl you’re always on my mind
Do you think about me too? Do I cross your mind?
Girl I don’t wanna lose you, get left behind
On my own in a world so cold, I’ll be fine
It’s not the same, yeah
(Yeah, yeah)
Everything has changed, yeah
(Yeah, yeah)
I’m all alone
(Yeah, yeah)
You wouldn’t wait, yeah
Please don’t hit my line when I’m clocking up a cheque
(Clocking up a cheque)
On my own on the road, girl you know that I’m next
(Know that I’m next)
On my own, all alone, you moved on to the next
(Moved on to the next)
Please don’t hit my line girl ever again

[Chorus: Active]
I
I know I know
I’m all alone
I’m on my own
I know I know
I’m on the low
I’m on my own
My own

[Verse 2: Active]
Ooh, let’s relive our memories
(Relive our memories)
All those nights I held you, closely
(I held you, so close)
All those times I kissed you, slowly
(I kissed you, so slow)
Can’t forget how you hugged me
(I can’t forget, I can’t forget)
I wish that you loved me
(Oh, oh)
I can’t forget
(Oh can’t forget)
How you ran your fingers through my hair
(Right through my hair)
You showed me what I am, you taught me what I can
(What I am, what I am, what I am)
You understood, showed me that I could
Never thought you would, leave me
(I know what I need)
I know It’s my fault, believe me
(I love you)
Now you’re gone and I’m all alone

[Chorus: Active]
I
I know I know
I’m all alone
I’m on my own
I know I know
I’m on the low
I’m on my own
My own
