about

From the lost 1960s musical "Make it Sing!"

lyrics

All alone tonight,
What a way to be.
All alone tonight,
What a waste of me.
But if he were here,
How would I behave?
Would I just submit
Like a helpless slave?

Or would I be strong,
Send him on his way,
Knowing in my heart
How I wished he'd stay?
Am I better off being on my own?
Oh, I'm so All Alone Tonight.

All Alone Tonight.

What a sorry sight.

Wasn't I the girl clever as could be,
Never letting love
Make a fool of me?

Yet I sit and wait,
Madame Butterfly.
I could almost laugh,
But instead I cry.
Where's the ecstasy I have never known?
Oh, here am I alone,
I'm so all alone,
Here am I alone tonight.
