Alone Together

<br>The rain fell soft on old Monterey.<br>There was nothing left that I could say.<br>Your mind was made and your heart was all undone.<br>Those few words spoken far too much,<br>as we lay so close, so out of touch,<br>alone together waitin` for the dawn.<br>A red-tail sailed towards the rainbow`s end.<br>It`s a shame we can`t get back again<br>to that night we tripped the light down St. Charles Avenue.<br>Best plans are laid, then romance fades<br>as the grand illusion falls from view.<br>When the feeling`s gone even all of the right words just wont do.<br>(Chorus:)<br>And we had a dream that lasted<br>to stand the test of time.<br>But it don`t look like we passed it<br>and it hurts to say good-bye.<br>I detect a weary smile these days,<br>I guess it`s better than the hurt and the hate.<br>We`ve come along way, known every shade of emotion<br>So we`ll let the chips fall where they may,<br>hold out for some brighter day,<br>like the sunlight playing on the restless ocean.<br>(Chorus)
