I Wish We Could Be Alone

I wish we could be alone
So all of the world couldn't see
How much we have together
And how much you mean to me.

I wish we could put out the flame
But oh, sweet baby
Tell me would it be right?

I take the subway
And you take the train
I got a husband
And you got a wife.

I wish we could love
And then not always have to pretend
I wish we could be alone, all alone
I wish we could be alone, all alone.

I know it's not simple
But I know that it's strong
And I know it will never be easy
But I know it ain't wrong.

I wish it could always be the way
It is when you're kissing me
I wish we could be alone, all alone
I wish we could be alone, all alone.

And so we'll go on and on
Hiding out the way that we do
Keeping it from all of our friends.

There ain't a nothing between us two
I wish we could hang about
And not worry who's giving in or out.

I wish we could be alone, all alone
I wish we could be alone, all alone
I wish we could be alone, all alone.
