All Alone Am I is a 1962 song by Brenda Lee. It was originally written by Greek composer Manos Hadjidakis and first sung in Greek for the movie The Island of the Brave as "Min ton rotas ton ourano" (Don't ask the sky). An English version with lyrics by Arthur Altman, produced by Owen Bradley, was released as the title track on Lee’s Decca single. The single came out September 24, 1962, after being recorded August 9, 1962, and runs 2:41.

The song became a big hit, reaching No. 3 on the US Billboard Hot 100 in November 1962 and No. 7 on the UK Singles Chart in February 1963. It also topped the US easy listening chart for five weeks in late 1962—the only Brenda Lee song to do so. The B-side, "Save All Your Lovin' For Me," reached No. 53 on the US pop chart.
