Intro
Verse 1
So Here We Are, In Some Motel
Trying To Do What Neither Of Us
Does Well
We Have To Not Be Alone
I'm Cringing Less, I'm Laughing More
As I Forget The Stranger You Were Before
We're Slowly Getting In---Sync
And I'm Beginning To---Think:
Chorus
It's Not So Bad
Discovering How This Works
Adjusting To Your Quirks
Even Though It's Not My Style
Teach Me To Not Be---Alone
It's Not So Hard
To Let Somebody In
Just Think How Long It's Been
Since Somebody Made You Smile
Learn How To Not Be---Alone
And By Tomorrow...
It Seems Absurd, But Do You Suppose
That You And I Might Wake Up To Find We're Pros
At Being Not Alone?
Post-Chorus, Dialogue
(Chord Progression For This Part: C#7Sus4, F#Maj7/A#, Fmaj7/G#, F#Maj7)
Oliver，Spoken: Hey, I'm Thinking Of Switching It Up Tomorrow
So Instead Of Late Swing Era, It'd Be More Post-Bop, Birth Of The Cool Kinds Of Tracks
Jeru, Moon Dreams, Godchild, Budo, Boplicity-
Chorus
So Yes, It's Hard
Indulging Him When He's
Describing His Lps
Or Conversing With His Plant
It Takes Work To Not Be---Alone
But I'm Improving...
And Do I Sense A Change In You
A Little Hint That You Might Be
Learning Too
How To Be Not Alone?
[Outro] (Higher Octave)
The Open Road, A Vast Unknown
(Music)
But Look At Us, We're Not---Alone.
