  • There's a poet in me that remembers
    And there's an honesty in every word
    There's a dancer that feels her own beat
    And there's a daughter who loves

    There's a sinner in my bones
    And there's a joker in my head
    There are secrets in my soul
    And there are sorries that I have never said

    But there's a time to dance
    Time to laugh
    Time to cry
    Time to go
    Time to grieve
    Time to come

    Oh, I still got time to cope
    Time to hope
    Time to play
    Time to grow
    But for now I gotta walk alone
    I gotta walk alone

    There's a tight rope that I've been walking
    There's a daisy in my hair
    There's a heartbreak that has taught me
    Of what is raging
    And there's only love and fear

    There's a sadness in my confessions
    There's a hyena howling at the moon
    And there's a gypsy in me that keeps on roaming
    And there's a an anger as I get closer to the truth

    But there's a time to dance
    Time to laugh
    Time to cry
    Time to go
    Time to grieve
    Time to come

    Oh, I still got time to cope
    Time to hope
    Time to play
    Time to grow
    But for now I gotta walk alone
    I gotta walk alone
    I gotta walk alone
    I've got to walk alone
    But for now I gotta walk alone

    Oh, oh-oh, I hear the thunder but I won't back down
    A soldier marching through the wrong side of town

    I'm gonna love you until I bleed
    And that's the story of me
    I gotta walk alone

    If they say time is everything (oh, oh-oh)
    There's a time to dance
    Time to laugh
    Time to cry
    Time to go
    Time to grieve
    Time to come

    Oh, I still got time to cope (oh)
    Time to hope
    Time to play
    Time to grow (I still got time)
    Now I gotta walk alone
    I've got to walk alone
    I've got to walk alone
    I gotta walk alone
    For now I gotta walk alone Writer/s: Alecia Moore, Billy Mann, Niklas Olovson, Robin Lynch
