[Verse 1]
The river's hard as stone
The wind is blowin' on
And I'm so far from home
It's not the night to be alone
My wheels are crunching glass
Only lonely trucks pass
'What am I doing here?' I ask
It's not the night to drive alone
[Chorus 1]
And I think of you, my friend
'Cos it's Christmas Eve again
And the seeds of regret have been truly sown
It's not the night to be alone
It's not the night to be alone
Alone
Alone
[Verse 2]
And it's work that brings me here
The only thing my heart holds dear
And it'll be the same next year
It's not the night to think alone
[Chorus 2]
But I do, of you, my friend
'Cos it's Christmas Eve again
And the seeds of regret have been truly sown
It's not the night to be alone
It's not the night to be
Alone
[Outro]
But the moon, it is not mine
Nor the stars that light the sky
And they'll be the view for a million other eyes
Spending Christmas Eve alone
Spending Christmas Eve alone
Alone
Alone
Alone
Alone
