Alone was originally written by Billy Steinberg and Tom Kelly for their band i-TEN in 1983. The song gained widespread popularity and recognition in the cover version by the band Heart in 1987. The lyrics speak to the deep desire for connection and the feeling of loneliness in the absence of that connection.

I hear the ticking of the clock, I'm lying here the room's pitch dark
I wonder where you are tonight, no answer on your telephone
And the night goes by so very slow
Oh I hope that it won't end so 
Alone

 Till now, I always got by on my own
 I never really cared until I met you
 And now it chills me to the bone
 How do I get you alone
 How do I get you alone

You don't know how long I have wanted,
 to touch your lips and hold you tight.
You don't know how long I have waited,
 and I was gonna tell you tonight.
But the secret is still my own,
And my love for you is still unknown
Alone

 Alone 

 Till now, I always got by on my own
 I never really cared until I met you
 And now it chills me to the bone
 How do I get you alone
 How do I get you alone


 How do I get you alone
 How do I get you alone
Alone 
Alone
