The party's over the game is ended

The dreams I dreamed went up in smoke

They didn't pan out as I had intended;

I should know how to take a joke

I'll go my way by myself

This is the end of romance

I'll go my way by myself

Love is only a dance

I'll try to apply myself

And teach my heart to sing

I'll go my way by myself

Like a bird on the wing

I'll face the unknown

I'll build a world of my own;

No one knows better than I

Myself I'm by myself alone

I'll go my way by myself

Here's how the comedy ends

I'll have to deny myself love

And laughter and friends

Grey clouds in sky above

Have put a blot on my fun

I'll have to deny myself

For a place in the sun

I'll face the unknown

I'll build a world of my own;

No one knows better than I

Myself I'm by myself myself alon

By Myself - Helen Merrill
