Good to Be Alone

Looking out my rearview mirror
 The miles behind don't disappear like they used to
 When I was with you
 However hard I hit the gas
 The engine don't run half as fast as it once did
 When we were just kids
 All of the good, old days are gone
 But this life keeps rolling on
 On and on
 Yeah, it's good to be alone
 No one to call you on the phone
 After a month out on the road, yeah
 No one to tell you, "Welcome home!"
 No one to scratch you down your back
 No one to cut you any slack
 You got to scratch it on your own, yeah
 Yeah, it's good to be alone
 The mountaintops don't stand so high
 The open road ain't quite as wide as it once seemed
 When we had the same dream
 The evening stars don't shine so bright
 When we don't make love through the night like we once did
 Yeah, those lights are faded
 All of the good, old days are gone
 But this life keeps rolling on
 On and on
 Yeah, it's good to be alone
 No one to call you on the phone
 After a month out on the road, yeah
 No one to tell you, "Welcome home!"
 No one to scratch you down your back
 No one to cut you any slack
 You got to scratch it on your own, yeah
 Yeah, it's good to be alone
 Alone, alone
 Alone, alone, oh
 Alone, alone
 You'll learn to scratch it on your own, yeah
 Yeah, it's good to be alone
