I Think We're Alone Now Lyrics

Children behave
That's what they say when we're together
And watch how you play
They don't understand and so we're

Runnin' just as fast as we can
Holdin' on to one another's hand
Tryin' to get away into the night
And then you put your arms around me
And we tumble to the ground
And then you say

I think we're alone now
There doesn't seem to be anyone around
I think we're alone now
The beating of our hearts
is the only sound

Look at the way
We gotta hide what we're doing
'Cause what would they say
If they ever knew and so we're

Runnin' just as fast as we can
Holdin' on to one another's hand
Tryin' to get away into the night
And then you put your arms around me
And we tumble to the ground
And then you say

I think we're alone now
There doesn't seem to be anyone around
I think we're alone now
The beating of our hearts
is the only sound

I think we're alone now
There doesn't seem to be anyone around
I think we're alone now
The beating of our hearts
is the only sound

Runnin' just as fast as we can
Holdin' on to one another's hand
Tryin' to get away into the night
And then you put your arms around me
And we tumble to the ground
And then you say

I think we're alone now
There doesn't seem to be anyone around
I think we're alone now
The beating of our hearts is the only sound

Am I the only one who noticed that they changed some words and made it sound kind of like a song about a zombie song or one about killing someone?

They don't say: "And then you put your arms around me And we tumble to the ground And then you say

I think we're alone now There doesn't seem to be anyone around I think we're alone now The beating of our hearts is the only sound

Look at the way We gotta hide what we're doing"

They say: "And then I put my arms around you And you tumble to the ground And then I say

I think we're alone now There doesn't seem to be anyone around I think we're alone now The beating of your heart is the only sound

Look at the way I gotta hide what I'm doing"

The subtle changes in lyrics can change the meaning quite a bit, if you think about it.

Only the other person tumbles to the ground, apparently the singer remains standing. Also, only the other person's heart is beating, because the singer states very clearly that the other person's heartbeat is the only sound, and if the singer's heart isn't also making a sound, then it isn't beating. Only the singer is doing something worth hiding, it isn't mutual. I'm surprised no one noticed the changes...

@DementedVampiricZombie of course someone with your name would think of this. But damn it's smart! I can see this 100%

@DementedVampiricZombie I didn\'t know this song was a cover at first, but I got the creepy meaning of it. Now I\'m seeing what they did with the original.

its not even Tiffany's original song. although it is a cover of her version of the song, i think TBM did a pretty good job with it.
