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.
