The Worst Is My Being Alone Lyrics - Waterdeep

"Aaron, have you ever had a burning in your chest 

That made you just want to be free?" 

It was a warm afternoon when she asked him this, 

As they sat on the shore of the sea 

Well, Aaron just tugged at his hair and he took 

A very long time to reply 

And by the time that he spoke, she'd forgotten she asked 

And was lost in the clouds of the sky 

He said, "Kelly, I don't think 

I've ever wanted as much 

To be free as I've longed to be known. 

And of the things that I hate 

As I look at my life, 

The worst is my being alone." 

The rest of his words he kept from her ears 

Cause he thought she might not understand 

And she didn't reply. She couldn't figure out how, 

Cause the fire in her heart had been fanned 

Oh, of all the things known that he could've spoken that day, 

He chose one from deep down inside 

Without intending her to, he caused her to confess 

Her false confidence and how she had lied 

She said, "Aaron, I don't think 

I've ever wanted as much 

To be free as I've longed to be known. 

And of the things that I hate 

As I look at my life, 

The worst is my being alone." 

And as they headed home, neither of them could speak a word 

And they held their own spirits to blame 

But at the pulse of the waves, they both turned around 

Surely someone was calling their name 

Someone was calling their name
