Lyrics On My Own - Shawn Colvin

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 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
