Alone together beyond the crowd
Above the world we're not too proud
To cling together we're strong
As long as we're...together.

Alone together the blinding rain
The starless night were not in vain
For we're together and what is there
To fear...together.

Our love is as deep as the sea
Our love is as great as a love can be
And we can weather the great unknown
If we're alone...together.

(bridge)

Our love is as deep as the sea
Our love is as great as a love can be
And we can weather the great unknown
If we're alone...together.

Together
As long as you're close to me
Our love is as deep as a love can be.

As long as you're close to me
Our love is as great as a love can be.

As long as you're close to me
Alone together
Our love is as deep as a love can be.

Alone together.
