On My Own - Shawn Colvin

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 let’s just you remember you

And I’ll remember me

I’m gonna be on my own

It’s a long way home

I feel like a baby boy

Just bein' born

A captive of your heart I guess I was

You gave no reason for stopping loving me

Just because

You dragged yourself right down

You did not hear a sound

But for the tapping of your teardrops

On the ground

I’m gonna be on my own

It’s a long way home

I feel like a baby boy

Just bein' born

If you find your true love

Once again

Please don’t do the same damn thing

To them

'Cause even when I was with you

I felt so all alone

I’d just as soon do without you and be

On my own

I’m gonna be on my own

It’s a long way home

I feel like a baby boy

Just bein' born
