Only

(SONG) (No don’t touch me I’m alright. I don’t want your sympathy I’m fine.) Only I can’t take the music that‘s all It makes me cry. (Don’t look at me so lovingly Don’t understand I don’t want your sensitive reactions, I don’t want to hold your hand I’m perfectly alright when I’m alone.) Only I can’t take the paired mallards flying over the river hey look so at home. (Just let me work this thing out my own way. an’t I learn a!out relationships without !eing with some!ody") Only the music the music calls to me Only the sky the sky is full of !irds flying home. Only the sun sets over the river Only the "ild geese call #nd fly together into the sun. Only I am alone.
