On My Own

(Carole bayer sager, burt bacharach) So many times I said it was forever Said our love would always be true Somethin' in my heart always knew I'd be lying there beside him On my own, on my own, on my own So many promises never should be spoken Now you know what loving him costs Now you're even talking divorce And you weren't even married On my own Once again i'm One more time by myself No one said it would be easy But it once was so easy Well I believe in love now here I stand You 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 That losing him would cut like a knife He walked out and there went your life I don't want to live without him 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 On my own You've got to find out where you belong again On my own You've got to learn how to be strong again On my own I never dreamed I'd spend one night alone by myself You've got to find out where you belong again Your heart is saying that it's time again And I know that you're gonna shine again
