  1. If I was the north wind, would you stop and shoot the breeze?

    If I was the north wind, would you stop and shoot the breeze?

  2. And if I was a mirror, you would get close as you could be

    And if I was a mirror, you would get close as you could be

  3. If I was a candle would you hold me gently?

    If I was a candle would you hold me gently?

  4. But if I was to love you, oh, you would run away from me

    But if I was to love you, oh, you would run away from me

  5. (Yes you would)

    (Yes you would)

  6. The water in the most was high to help protect the queen

    The water in the moat was high to help protect the queen

  7. And I was on the other side with a drawbridge in between

    And I was on the other side with a drawbridge in between

  8. I waited at the gate but you were never to be seen

    I waited at the gate but you were never to be seen

  9. And bridges burn much easier if you're using kerosene

    And bridges burn much easier if you're using kerosene

  10. And I would hold my own

    And I would hold my own

  11. Just to ascend that throne

    只为登上那王座

  12. Though all my friends at home

    尽管我所有的朋友

  13. Tell me I'm better off alone

    告诉我一个人更好

  14. And all the tales you told

    而你讲的那些故事

  15. About true love got old

    关于真爱的故事老了

  16. 'Cause in the end you showed me

    因为到最后你让我明白

  17. How your love was so, so cold, baby, ow

    你的爱是如此冷酷,宝贝,哦

  18. Seven days a week, I call you just to hear you say

    一周七天,我打电话只为听你说

  19. "Boy, I've got a thing for you but there really is no way"

    "宝贝,我对你很有感觉,但真的没办法"

  20. Even so I know you love me more and more each day

    即便如此,我知道你每天都越来越爱我

  21. You tell me I'm the only one when your boyfriend is away (oh no)

    You say I'm the only one when your boyfriend is away (oh no)

  22. And I would hold my own

    And I would stand proud

  23. Just to ascend that throne

    Just to reach that crown

  24. Though all my friends at home

    Though all my friends at home

  25. Tell me I'm better off alone

    Tell me I'm better off alone

  26. And all the tales you told

    And all the stories you shared

  27. About true love got old

    About true love grew weary

  28. 'Cause in the end you showed me

    Because in the end you revealed to me

  29. How your Love was so, so cold, baby

    How your love was so, so cold, baby

  30. I don't know what I was thinking

    I don't know what I was thinking

  31. I should've listened to you guys

    I should've listened to you guys

  32. But I promise that the next time

    But I promise that the next time

  33. I'll never let this happen

    I'll never let this happen

  34. Better off alone (don't wanna be alone)

    Better off alone (don't wanna be alone)

  35. Better off alone (don't wanna be alone)

    Better off alone (don't wanna be alone)

  36. Better off alone (don't wanna be alone)

    Better off alone (don't wanna be alone)

  37. Better off alone (don't wanna be alone)

    Better off alone (don't wanna be alone)

  38. Better off alone (don't wanna be alone)

    Better off alone (don't wanna be alone)

  39. Better off alone (don't wanna be alone)

    Better off alone (don't wanna be alone)

  40. Better off alone (don't wanna be alone)

    Better off alone (don't wanna be alone)

  41. Better off alone

    Better off alone

Better Off Alone

If I was the north wind, would you stop and shoot the breeze?

If I was the north wind, would you stop and shoot the breeze?

And if I was a mirror, you would get close as you could be

And if I was a mirror, you would get close as you could be

If I was a candle would you hold me gently?

If I was a candle would you hold me gently?

But if I was to love you, oh, you would run away from me

But if I was to love you, oh, you would run away from me

(Yes you would)

(Yes you would)

The water in the most was high to help protect the queen

The water in the moat was high to help protect the queen

And I was on the other side with a drawbridge in between

And I was on the other side with a drawbridge in between

I waited at the gate but you were never to be seen

I waited at the gate but you were never to be seen

And bridges burn much easier if you're using kerosene

And bridges burn much easier if you're using kerosene

And I would hold my own

And I would hold my own

Just to ascend that throne

只为登上那王座

Though all my friends at home
