The phone is off the hook
And Jimmy's got a gun
Sherry's in the river and
The river's gonna run again

Mmmm, yeah

So you don't know where to go
You don't know where to hide
Holding all your tears
Keeping your pain inside

With your back against the wall
Heart falling from your hands
You throw it in the river
The river's gonna run again

Oh, yeah, yeah

But you are not
Alone

But yoou're not safe
At home

And you're running back, running back
When you're off track
Lookin' for a home
Or a house to call your own
You need a phone
You feel all alone
Don't know where to start
While you fall into part
And you need someone to hold
Your hands and cope
You feel a little older
You need a shoulder, oh, I know

But you're not alone...
What they will believe
And if you wanna change
How's it meant to be
Oh, you wanna live a life
You need to break away
Counting on your hands
The days you have left to pay.
But you are not alone

But you're are not safe
At home

And you're running back, running back
When you're off track
Lookin' for a home
Or a house to call your own
You need a phone
You feel all alone
Don't know where to start
While you fall into part
And you need someone to hold
Your hands and cope
You feel a little older
You need a shoulder, oh, I know
