It's a lonely picture
of an empty glass.
It's a still life study, baby
of a drunken ass.
And he howls at the moon
hoping the sun don't come up too fast.
I'm all alone in the dark, now, baby
I'm all alone in the dark, now, baby
I'm all alone on my knees at last.
Alone in the dark.
It's extreme self-pity
and frozen fear
'cause I want you with me
and you're not here,
so I rub my nose in it, babe,
'til the roses smell just like death.
I'm all alone in the dark, now, baby
I'm all alone in the dark, now, baby
I'm all alone drawing whisky breath.
Alone in the dark.
My head is spinning, baby, what went wrong
I swear to God I tried.
Just turned around one day and you were gone,
now these tears I have to cry
alone in the dark, baby.
I'm all alone.
Ahuuujuuu…
Since the night that you left,
I just couldn’t stand myself anyway.
I'm all alone in the dark, now, baby
I'm all alone in the dark, now, baby
I'm all alone on my knees at last.
I'm all alone in the dark, now, baby
I'm all alone in the dark, now, baby
I'm all alone on my knees at last.
I'm all alone
I'm all alone
I'm all alone drawing whisky breath.
Alone in the dark.
I'm all alone…
John Hiatt, nacido en Indiana, es un compositor y guitarrista citado como una influencia por artistas tales como The Neville Brothers, Dr. Feelgood e Iggy Pop. Este hombre que comenzó su carrera en 1974 con el disco «Hangin’ Around The Observatory», ha publicado una docena de álbumes, aunque su apasionada visión del rock y su penetrante e íntima alma country nunca le proporcionaron gran éxito. La crítica, sin embargo, alabó trabajos como «Bring The Family» y «Stolen Moments».

Se unió a Ry Cooder, Jim Keltner y Nick Lowe para formar "Little Village", banda en la que John componía, tocaba la guitarra y cantaba. Fue una unión corta pero de enorme calidad. En 2005 grabó ¨Master of disaster¨ estupendo trabajo en el que vuelve a mezclar rock, country, blues y soul con un sello personal inigualable.
