Discover the story of the song > Alone Together – Westlife

The lyrics are about a person who wants to understand how their partner's heart can be broken so that they don't make the same mistakes. They don't want to see their partner sad or crying. The person knows what it feels like to feel alone and disconnected, and they believe that they and their partner should be alone together, even if it's not forever. They want to know what their partner thinks and feels, stay up with them, and meet them in the middle. They think that being alone together is worth missing.
