  • Things look clear in black and white
    The living color tends to dye our sight
    Like dynomite
    Just imagine my surprise
    When I looked into your eyes and saw
    Your disguise

    If we dare expose our hearts
    Just to feel the purest parts
    That's when strange sensations start to grow

    We are not alone
    Find out when your cover's blown
    There'll be somebody there to break your fall
    We are not alone
    'Cause when you cut down to the bone
    We're really not so different after all
    After all
    We're not alone

    Flying high above the sky
    The battles down below look simplified
    With no place to hide
    But on inspection of the dust
    I came upon this thing called trust
    It helps us to adjust

    Just imagine my surprise
    When I looked into your eyes
    I knew right then I'd never let you go

    We are not alone
    Find out when your cover's blown
    There'll be somebody there to break your fall
    We are not alone
    'Cause when you cut down to the bone
    We're really not so different after all
    After all
    We're not alone
    Not alone
    After all
    Not alone

    If we dare expose our hearts
    Just to feel the purest parts
    That's when strange sensations start to grow

    We are not alone
    Find out when your cover's blown
    There'll be somebody there to break your fall
    We are not alone
    'Cause when you cut down to the bone
    We're really not so different after all
    After all
    We're not alone

    We are not alone
    Find out when your cover's blown
    There'll be somebody there to break your fall
    We are not alone
    'Cause when you cut down to the bone
    We're really not so different after all
    After all
    After all Writer/s: KARLA JAYNE DE VITO, ROBBY BENSON, STEVEN ROBERT GOLDSTEIN
