She goes home alone at night
She has the feeling that something isn't right
She goes home alone
She makes a cup of tea then reads
She'll feed the cat then watch TV
Trying hard to be strong
But I wonder how much more she can take
How much love can we lose before we brake
Tell me it's all in my head
She goes home alone at night
She tells the world she'll be alright
She counts the stars until it's light
She counts the stars at night
She counts the stars
There's a clock up on her wall
You can hear it tic but there's no hands at all
I know it's odd but it's cool
And if someone told me this I'd think it was strange
I might even laugh to escape the pain
Hiding the truth from myself
And when i asked what she did on nights
When storm clouds hid the stars from sight
She said she counts each drop of rain
She goes home alone ant night
She tells us that she be alright
She counts the starts until it's light
She counts the stars at night
She counts the stars
She said this world can be so hard to face
She said this world can be to much to take
She said this world can be a lonely place
But when she said she thought she was a lot like me
I dropped my cup I spilled her tea
So surprised that I couldn't speak
Well she shrugged it off and then shied away
I didn't see it then but I can see it today
Just one tear frozen in time
She goes home alone at night
She tells me that she'll be alright
She counts the stars until it's night
She goes home alone at night
She tells us that she'll be alright
She counts the stars until its light
She counts the stars at night
She counts the stars
At night
