NO ONE IS ALONE
          (from the musical "Into the Woods")
         Lyrics and Music by Stephen Sondheim

     No one here to guide you,
       now you're on your own.
     Only me beside you.
       Still you're not alone.

     No one is alone, truly.
     No one is alone.

     Sometimes people leave you
       halfway through the wood.
     Others may deceive you.
       You decide what's good.

     You decide alone,
     but no one is alone.

     Mother isn't here now (wrong things right things)
       Who knows what she'd say? (Who can say what's true?)
     Nothing's quite so clear now (Do things, fight things)
       Feel you've lost your way?

     You decide, but 
     you are not alone.
     Believe me.  No one is alone.

     People make mistakes,
       Fathers,
          Mothers,
     People make mistakes,
       Holding to their own
       Thinking they're alone.

     Honor their mistakes ... (Fight for their mistakes)
        (Ev'rybody makes)
              One another's terrible mistakes
     Witches can be right,
     Giants can be good,
     You decide what's right,
     You decide what's good.  Just remember

     Someone is on your side, our side, (our side,)
       Someone else is not.
     While you're seeing your side, our side, (our side,)
       Maybe you forgot:

     They are not alone.
     No one is alone.

     Hard to see the light now,
       Just don't let it go.
     Things will come out right now.
       We can make it so.

     Someone is on your side,
     No one is alone.
