[Verse 1]
Looking out my rear view mirror
The miles behind don't disappear
Like they used to
When I was with you

[Verse 2]
However hard I hit the gas
The engine don't run half as fast
As it once did
When we were just kids

[Pre-Chorus]
All of the good old days are gone
But this life keeps rolling on
On and on...

[Chorus]
It's good to be alone
No one to call you on the phone
After a month out on the road
No one to tell you welcome home
No one to scratch you down your back
No one to cut you any slack
You got to scratch it on your own
It's good to be alone
[Verse 3]
The mountain tops don't stand so high
The open road ain't quite as wide
As it once seemed
When we had the same dream

[Verse 4]
The evening stars don't shine so bright
When we don't make love through the night
Like we once did
Yeah, those lights are faded

[Pre-Chorus]
All of the good old days are gone
But this life keeps rolling on
On and on...

[Chorus]
It's good to be alone
No one to call you on the phone
After a month out on the road
No one to tell you welcome home
No one to scratch you down your back
No one to cut you any slack
You got to scratch it on your own
It's good to be alone
[Outro]
Alone, alone
Alone, alone
Alone, alone
You'll learn to scratch it on your own
It's good to be alone
