(Eric Carmen/Segei Rachmaninoff)

When I was young

I never needed anyone

Making love was just for fun

Those days are gone

Living alone

I think of all the friends I've known

When I dial the telephone

Nobody's home

Chorus:

All by myself

I don't wanna be

All by myself

Anymore

All by myself

I don't wanna live

All by myself

Anymore

Hard to be sure

Sometimes I feel so insecure

And love's so distant and obscure

Remains the cure

Chorus

When I was young

I never needed anyone

And making love was just for fun

Those days are gone

Chorus
