I Walk Alone Lyrics

Sophie B. Hawkins I Walk Alone

I wanted to be loved
I wanted to be known
I wanted to be held
I wanted to be thrown into this world

I wanted to be your little girl
I wanted to be shy
I wanted to be dumb
I wanted to be blind

I wanted to be young as a child
I wanted to feel myself worthwhile
You shot like star dust through me
And I wanted you to be
All that I would ever need

And my trial is leaving now
While I'm still strong
I wanted you to be the one
Though you knew it all along

I walk alone, God speed Your love
God, take me home, I walk alone
God, be my judge
God, still my soul

I tried to be your wife
I tried to be your friend
I tried to take my life
I tried to understand

How I failed in your eyes, I can't prevail
There's nothing more that I can do
But carry on without you
Finding love in spite of truth

And I sail the seas of destiny's song
In my heart I may hold on
But you'll reach and I'll be gone

I walk alone, God speed Your love
God, take me home, I walk alone
God, be my judge
God, still my soul

I walk alone, in God I trust
Where I belong, I walk alone
In God I must proclaim my own
