Lyrics: On My Own

If I don't see you before I go
Remember what you've seen and what you know
Sunshine, you will be on my mind eternally
But you remember you and I'll remember me

I want to be on my own
It's a long way home
I feel like a baby boy
Just being born

If you find your true love once again
Please don't do the same damn thing to him
Even when I was with you, I felt so all alone
So I'd as soon do without you and be on my own

I want to be on my own
It's a long way home
I feel like a baby boy
Just being born

A captive of your heart, I guess I was
You gave no reason to stop loving me - just because
Well, you dragged yourself right down, you could not hear a sound
Just the tapping of your teardrops on the ground

I want to be on my own
It's a long way home
I feel like a baby boy
Just being born

Get outside your shell
Those things don't make you well
You're the broken part of a living fairy tale

I want to be on my own
It's a long way home
I feel like a baby boy
Just being born.
