When I Am Alone - Jil Is Lucky

Tell me why when I’m alone

My room looks bigger than it is

My left hand is stuck on the phone

The other one scratches my knees

I press my face against the window

And my ears against the wall

I hear the rain and see the snow

I’m not bored, not at all

When I’m alone

When I’m alone

Across the country my baby knows there’s something wrong

When I’m alone

When I’m alone

She calls me on the phone

She plays the trumpet Well I just miss her so much

That I could write an entire book

So I wrote down this song

So that she can have a look

At me on my own, quietly growing old

My eyes staring at the shirt

The one I didn’t fold

When I’m alone

When I’m alone

Across the country my baby knows there’s something wrong

When I’m alone

When I’m alone

She calls me on the phone

And says

«Jil, you seem pretty tired

You seem to be worried

'cause I am not behind you «She says

«Jil, go and tidy up your room 'cause I am coming soon «Yeah Yeah Yeah
