On My Own
Originally performed by
Patti Labelle and Michael McDonald
So many times
Said it was forever
Said our love would always be true
Something in my heart always knew
I'd be lying here beside you
On my own
On my own
On my own
So many promises, never should be spoken
Now I know what lovin' you cost
Now we're up to talkin' divorce
And we weren't even married
On my own
Once again now
One more time
By myself
No one said it was easy
Noooo (oooh)
But it once was so easy
Well I believed in love
Now here I stand
(Ooh) I wonder why
I'm on my own
Why did it end this way
(On my own)
This wasn't how it was supposed to be
(On my own)
I wish that we could do it all again
So many times
I know I could have told you
Losing you it cut like a knife, hey
You walked out and there went my life
I don't want to live without you
On my own
(This wasn't how it was supposed to end)
On my own
(I wish that we could do it all again)
On my own
(I never dreamed I'd spend
one night alone)
By myself
(Ohhhh)
On my own
(I've got to find out
where I belong again)
On my own
(I've got to learn to be strong again)
On my own
(I never dreamed I'd spend
one night alone)
By myself (by myself)
On my own
Whoooh I've got to find out
What was mine again
My heart is saying that it's time again
I have faith that I will shine again
(By myself)
Ooooooooh I, have faith, in me
On my own
On my own
By myself...
