[Intro]
Ooh, be alone

[Verse 1]
Hey you, well you know me
Could I ask a favour to be me
I was just thinking about some alone time with me
Call it selfish and call it greed, call it anything you like
'Cause I was just thinking about some alone time with me
So baby

[Chorus]
Everybody wants to be alone, I like to be alone sometimes
Everybody wants to be alone (ooh, be alone)
Everybody wants to be alone, I came to be alone tonight
Everybody wants to be alone (ooh, be alone) sometimes

[Verse 2]
Never meant to start a fight
Never asked you to pull apart and manage my life
You may mean well, but I'm in hell
And it's clear to see
From the minute that I wake up to the inevitable breakup
Take a step back, get my head back in the game
So baby

[Chorus]
Everybody wants to be alone, I like to be alone sometimes
Everybody wants to be alone
Everybody wants to be alone, I came to be alone tonight
Everybody wants to be alone (ooh, be alone)
Ooh, be alone

[Chorus]
Everybody wants to be alone, I like to be alone sometimes
Everybody wants to be alone (ooh, be alone)
Everybody wants to be alone, I came to be alone tonight
Everybody wants to be alone (ooh, be alone) sometimes
Sometimes
Sometimes
