[Verse 1]
And it's a long warm summer
A cruel way to live
All the lovers walk hand in hand
All the world to give

[Chorus]
All the days on my own
All the nights I've spent cryin'
It's hard to say if I'll ever escape
But, man, I keep tryin'

[Verse 2]
I take note of my shortcomings
It makes perfect sense
How a man ends up so alone
When he builds such a fence

[Chorus]
All the days on my own
All the nights I've spent cryin'
It's hard to say if I'll ever escape
But, man, I keep tryin'

[Bridge]
Knowing what you know now
Do you think there's a chance
For yours truly to win?
I'd give up, but I can't shake the feeling I can
[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
All the days on my own
All the nights I've spent cryin'
It's hard to say if I'll ever escape
But, man, I keep tryin'
