I'm Alone Lyrics

On the lonely road I'm travelling on
The road that leads nowhere
As the ground and the sky wondering why
I'm alone so alone

I kept rolling on from tears for years
Sun is my only friend
With the wind on the bend and my pack in my hand
I'm alone so alone

I'm alone so alone
I'm alone so alone
I'm alone so alone
And I feel like going home

With my money spent, my clothes all torn
My spirit can't grow
I ain't got no friend where the power ends
I'm alone so alone

I'm alone so alone
I'm alone so alone
I'm alone so alone
And I feel like going home

The music for the track had been bouncing around for a couple of years, surfacing under various names on various recordings. It began life as an instrumental jam called "Jam Stew" or "John's Stew", them morphed into a bit more 'finished', less impromptu product titled "Grabsplatter" (A Gillan title, as he said the music on the track was a "...grabsplatter of ideas & concepts"). The lyrics - once again - were ones that Gillan had brought to the band from his days with Episode Six. More about Gillan's self-doubts about his career choice and what the possible repercussions would or could be...seeing as he's in his 40th year in the business this year, maybe it'd be worth dropping him a line at his website and asking him about it!
