Clive studied at Cambridge University and then he worked as musician. They fell in love and married in 1984. They were very happy. But on Wednesday 27th March 1985, Clive Wearing got very ill and lost his memory. He only remembered things for a few seconds. He could play the piano and he knew Deborah´s face, but he couldn´t remember her name. Life was very difficult for them. It was a sad time. Deborah sold their flat in London and moved back to USA. Clive went to live in a hospital. Deborah often came to England to visit Clive and they had good time together. He played music and wrote a dairy. Every time she left, she said, “Remember, I love you”. And every time he saw her again, Clive fell in love with her again. Their new life was very different. Clive couldn´t remember his past, but he was happy in the present.

Another day has gone
I'm still all alone
How ________ this be?
You're not here with me
You never _________ goodbye
Someone tell me why
Did you have to go?
And leave my world so cold

Everyday I sit and ask myself
How _______ love slip away?
Something whispers in my ear and says

That you are not alone
I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay
But you are not alone
I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart
But you are not alone

'Lone, 'lone
Why, 'lone

Just the other night
I ­­­­­______  I ________ you cry
Asking me to come
And hold you in my arms
I can hear your prayers
Your burdens I will bear
But first I need your hand
Then forever can begin

Everyday I sit and ask myself
How did love slip away?
Something whispers in my ear and says

That you are not alone
I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay
But you are not alone
I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart
But you are not alone

Whisper three words and I'll come running
And girl you know that I'll be there
I'll be there

That you are not alone
I am here with you
Though you're far away
I am here to stay
But you are not alone
I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart

For you are not alone (You are not alone)
For I am here with you (I am here with you)
Though you're far away (Though you're far away)
I am here to stay (You and me)
For you are not alone (You're always in my heart)
For I am here with you
Though we're far apart
You're always in my heart

For you are not alone
Not alone, oh
You are not alone
You are not alone
Say it again
You are not alone
You are not alone
Not alone, not alone

If you just reach out for me girl
In the morning, in the evening
Not alone, not alone
You and me
Not alone
Oh, together, together

Gotta stop being alone
Gotta stop being alone
