[Verse 1]
I poured one coffee, watched the morning climb
Set two plates out, then remembered mine
My friends call laughing, saying, “Brother, are you free?”
We’re all alone together, that’s the strangest thing to me
[Pre-Chorus]
Good people all around me, still an empty chair
I got a heart with room inside, but nobody there
[Chorus]
Why am I alone when I’ve got so much to give?
I miss a good woman beside me in this life I live
My friends are true, but the nights still feel too long
Why am I alone, baby, where did love go wrong?
[Verse 2]
We meet down at the diner when the workday disappears
Trade old stories, tease each other, hide the quiet fears
One talks about his garden, one keeps checking his phone
We smile like we’re doing fine, then drive back home alone
[Pre-Chorus]
I don’t need a perfect angel, don’t need diamonds or a throne
Just a steady hand to hold, and a voice that feels like home
[Chorus]
Why am I alone when I’ve got so much to give?
I miss a good woman beside me in this life I live
My friends are true, but the nights still feel too long
Why am I alone, baby, where did love go wrong?
[Bridge]
Maybe she is somewhere folding laundry by the window
Maybe she is tired of waiting too
Maybe two worn-out hearts can recognize each other
When the right day finally comes through
[Instrumental]
[Final Chorus]
I won’t stay alone, I still believe in love
There’s a good woman somewhere, and I’m looking up above
My friends will raise a glass when she comes walking through
Till then I’ll keep this hopeful heart, and leave a place for you
[Outro]
Leave a place for you
At this old table for two
I’m not alone forever
I’m just waiting to find you
