Elton John - Can't Stay Alone Tonight Lyrics






I blew the dust out of the corners
Threw some dead wood on the fire
Tuned the radio to silence
Watched the evening sun expire

Should have called you up this morning
But I'm such a fool at times
I still search my shaving mirror
Looking for your face with mine

And I can't stay alone tonight
Can't let another day go by
Why is it always this way?
Time never seems to really fly
And time is never really on my side
And I can't stay alone tonight
Things have to change and they might
But I can't stay alone tonight

Chalk up one more crazy notion
Imagination running wild
But if I needed confirmation
I would have gone that extra mile

You're the last chance on the highway
I'm that open stretch of road
You're the diner in my rear-view
A cup of coffee getting cold


And I can't stay alone tonight
Can't let another day go by
Why is it always this way?
Time never seems to really fly
And time is never really on my side
And I can't stay alone tonight
Things have to change and they might
But I can't stay alone tonight

Bruised in this cold war of words
We've come undone two loose ends alone
Possessed by that curse you've endured
The spell that I cast couldn't make you come home

And I can't stay alone tonight
Can't let another day go by
Why is it always this way?
Time never seems to really fly
And time is never really on my side
And I can't stay alone tonight
Things have to change and they might
But I can't stay alone tonight
Things have to change and they might
But I can't stay alone tonight

    Can't Stay Alone Tonight
    Elton John
    Album: The Diving Board

    I blew the dust out of the corners
    Threw some dead wood on the fire
    Tuned the radio to silence
    Watched the evening sun expire

    Should have called you up this morning
    But I'm such a fool at times
    I still search my shaving mirror
    Looking for your face with mine

    And I can't stay alone tonight
    Can't let another day go by
    Why is it always this way?
    Time never seems to really fly
    And time is never really on my side
    And I can't stay alone tonight
    Things have to change and they might
    But I can't stay alone tonight

    Chalk up one more crazy notion
    Imagination running wild
    But if I needed confirmation
    I would have gone that extra mile

    You're the last chance on the highway
    I'm that open stretch of road
    You're the diner in my rear-view
    A cup of coffee getting cold

    And I can't stay alone tonight
    Can't let another day go by
    Why is it always this way?
    Time never seems to really fly
    And time is never really on my side
    And I can't stay alone tonight
    Things have to change and they might
    But I can't stay alone tonight

    Bruised in this cold war of words
    We've come undone two loose ends alone
    Possessed by that curse you've endured
    The spell that I cast couldn't make you come home

    And I can't stay alone tonight
    Can't let another day go by
    Why is it always this way?
    Time never seems to really fly
    And time is never really on my side
    And I can't stay alone tonight
    Things have to change and they might
    But I can't stay alone tonight
    Things have to change and they might
    But I can't stay alone tonight
