Let me tell you right there, you're a friend of mine\\
And I used to getting close if you catch me a time\\
We can do it like this with the twist of lime\\
Always on my mind, not the freak of the week\\
Take the words I speak, to every soul I reach\\
Hold tight with your touch on the microphone\\
As you're not just here, you are not alone!''

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6dFbZ1jvq_U "Guide You Home"]] from the ''VideoGame/LegendOfSpyro'' series's "Dawn of the Dragon" game has this as its general theme, with the singer (popularly assumed by fans to be Cynder) being willing to die for their love (Spyro), go to any lengths to find them, and light a fire to help them find their way back home. It also fits with the theme of the game, as Cynder and Spyro are together constantly.

Why do you go upon this road\\
When you could find your way home?''

It don't matter what'll come to be--our love is all we need to make it through.
* There are a lot of songs titled "Hitori Ja Nai" (which is the article title in Japanese) in [=JPop=]. With various flavors, too.
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SEAbFAqhLZ8 Für Immer]] by the German band Unheilig:
--> Weinst Du auch, wenn Deine Welt zerbricht? Weinst Du? Ich weine mit! Brauchst Du mich, wenn Du am Abgrund stehst? Springst Du? Ich halte Dich!\\
Translates to: Do you cry when your world breaks apart? Do you cry? I cry with you! Do you need me when you're in front of the abyss? do you jump? I hold you!
* "Valkyrie Missile" by ''Music/AngelsAndAirwaves''.
-->If you're here and you're all alone tonight\\

Take a chance 'cause I know you want to\\
If only you'll hold on, just hold on\\
I'm here and I'm with you\\
I'm here too, I feel you\\
We'll get through\\
I know this, I've seen it\\
A hundred times, a thousand times\\
Just one more time with you and I\\
I'll pull you close...\\
And then we'll say goodbye.

When darkness comes\\
I'll light the night with stars\\
Hear my whispers in the dark\\
No, you'll never be alone\\
When darkness comes\\
You know I'm never far\\
Hear my whispers in the dark
** While it's not as overt as "Whispers in the Dark", "Awake and Alive" expresses a similar sentiment, especially in the lines immediately preceding the chorus in the first two verses:
--->It's getting harder to stay awake\\
And my strength is fading fast\\
You breathe into me at last
:::And
--->When my faith is getting weak\\
And I feel like giving in\\
You breathe into me again
** This theme is repeated in "The Last Night", wherein the singer is speaking to a girl suffering from depression.
--> This is the last night you'll spend alone\\
Look me in the eyes so I know you know\\
I'm everywhere you want me to be
* "Message in a Bottle" by ''Music/ThePolice'' tells the story of a castaway who sends out an S.O.S. in a bottle, and waits for a year with no reply. Then...
-->Woke up this morning, don't believe what I saw:\\
Hundred billion bottles washed up on the shore.\\
Seems I'm not alone in being alone,\\
Hundred billion castaways looking for a home.
** Ostensibly, it's just about a castaway...but considering who came up with the song, it wouldn't be a stretch to say that the hidden message is You Are Not Alone.
* "Run With Us" by Lisa Lougheed, the [[EndingTheme theme song]] for ''TheRaccoons''.
-->If a desperate love,\\
Keeps on driving you wrong,\\
Don't be afraid,\\
You're not alone.
* "Yubiwa" by Creator/MaayaSakamoto, which was used for the BigDamnMovie of ''Anime/TheVisionOfEscaflowne'';
** Lyrics [[http://www.animelyrics.com/jpop/sakamoto/yubiwa23k.htm found here.]]

And your fears surround you\\

You did not desert me\\
My [[TitleDrop brothers in arms]].
* Music/PinkFloyd's "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P-hxpnnNREQ Outside The Wall]]" from ''Music/TheWall'', where the titular wall represents the emotional barrier many have built sealing themselves off from the world.
--> All alone, or in twos,\\
The ones who really love you\\
Walk up and down outside the wall. \\
Some hand in hand,\\
some gathered together in bands,\\
the bleeding hearts and the artists make their stand.\\
And when they've given you their all,\\
some stagger and fall after all, it's not easy.\\
Banging your heart against some mad bugger's wall.
* Seal's "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TXsAtWbEoRU Don't Cry]]", whose chorus says it best:
--> Don't cry,\\
You're not alone.\\
Don't cry tonight,\\
My baby.\\
Don't cry;\\
You'll always be loved.\\
Don't cry tonight,\\
My baby.
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mnDEFyV88Qs "Not Alone"]] by Music/AllThatRemains. Though it's more "''I'' am not alone" than "''you'' are not alone", it's a similar sentiment. (Also ambiguous is whether it's referring to a woman or to a God.)
--> ''I'm not alone''

--> ''You can spend your time alone, re-digesting past regrets, oh\\
Or you can come to terms and realize\\
You're the only one who can't forgive yourself, oh\\
Makes much more sense, to live in the present tense''
* "Lullaby" by {{Nickelback}} is full of this trope, calling out to the listener that no matter where they are, there is ''someone'' who wants them to make it through.
** "Somebody for Me", as well, though the sentiment is more romantic than most examples.
* Second Person's "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZS5H52JuDb4 Paper Umbrella]]" is about someone desperately trying to convince their friend that they are not alone in their suffering. Lyrics can be interprerted for nearly any situation - mourning the loss of a loved one, divorce, a parent consoling a child, or even a child consoling a parent.
* Stick To Your Guns, a hardcore band, brings us Amber, a song about a girl who thinks nobody cares about her. The lyrics speak to the listener at some point, as well.
-->''She screams "oh"/I've had enough please make this go/The sea is rough and I'm drowning slow/The mind-numbing pain has her lost in the undertow/But braves her storm/You're not alone''
* "Not Alone" by Music/{{Red}}. Pretty much the same sort of thing as many of the songs already here.
* "The Unwinding Cable Car" and "Hello Alone" by Music/{{Anberlin}}. The latter is an aversion until the last line of the song, though.
* Music/DeathCabForCutie's "I Will Follow You Into The Dark":
--> If Heaven and Hell decide\\
They both are satisfied\\
Illuminate the 'no's on their vacancy signs\\
If there's no one beside you\\
When your soul embarks\\
Then I'll follow you into the dark.
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_gVdi6sizeY "Unity"]] by Music/{{Shinedown}}
--> Put your hands in the air if you hear me out there\\
I've been searching for you day and night\\
Shine a light in the dark, let me see where you are\\
'Cause I'm not gonna leave you behind.\\
If I told you that you're not alone\\
And I showed you this is where you belong\\
Put your hands in the air\\
One more time.
* {{Garbage}}'s song "Beloved Freak" has "You're not alone" as a repeated lyric. What's really heartwarming is that it was the last song on the track, which the band typically reserves for their most depressing songs.
** Similarly, their song [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I242tge6HII "Tell Me Where it Hurts"]]:
-->Tell me where it hurts\\
And to hell with everybody else\\
All I care about is you, and that's the truth\\
They don't like me\\
Yeah, I can tell\\
But you do, so they can go to hell
* The Music/MarianasTrench song [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GJ0z1LH6RJc "Beside You"]]:
-->And when your heart wears thin\\
I will hold you up\\
And I will hide you\\
If it gets too rough\\
I'll be right beside you
* Depending on what version you're hearing, the classic {{Christmas song|s}} "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas" can send this message.
* Erutan's rendition of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qmbgCBZ86z4 "You're Not Alone"]] from ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyIX'', mentioned below, adds lyrics to the song overlaying the scene that illustrate this trope.
-->''When the storm draws nigh\\
Dreams will shatter before your eyes\\
Know that you're not alone\\
When the battle starts\\
I will comfort your restless heart\\
You'll know that you are home\\
\\
When your stars stop shining\\
Endless vines around you winding\\
Know that you're not alone\\
I will give my all\\
So your tears will no longer fall\\
Down, down on sorrow's stone''
* This is echoed repeatedly in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7OHLjezTtY "The Gates"]] by Young Empires.
* ''Move Along'' by Music/TheAllAmericanRejects.
-->''Hands are shaking cold\\
Your hands are mine to hold''
* ''Flares'' by ''Music/TheScript''
-->''Did you see the sparks\\
Feel the hope\\
You are not alone\\
'Cause someone's out there\\
Sending out flares''
* ''Eye of the Storm'', by ''Music/KillswitchEngage''.
-->''Through the eye\\
Of the storm\\
You are never alone\\
Even through the shadows\\
You are never alone''
