"On My Own" Lyrics

On My Own
Patti Labelle Michael McDonald

PL: So many times, we said it was forever
Said our love would always be true
Something in my heart always knew
I'd be lying here beside you

PM: On my own, on my own, on my own

MM: So many promises never should be spoken
Now I know what loving you cost
Now we're actually talking divorce
And we weren't even married

PL: On my own, once again now, one more time, by myself

PL: No one said it was easy, nooooooooooo
MM: But it once was so easy
PL: well I believe MM: I believe
PL: In love (MM: in love)
PL: Now here I stand
PM: I wonder why
PL: Whooooo

PL: I'm on my own, why did it end this way
This wasn't how it was supposed to be
I wish that we could do it all again

MM: So many times, I know I could have told you
Losing you it cut like a knife, hey
You walked out and out with my life
I don't wanna live without you

MM: On my own
PL: (this wasn't how it was supposed to end)
MM: On my own
PL: I wish that we could do it all again
MM: On my own
PL: I never dreamed I'd spend one night alone
PL: By my self

PL: On my Own
MM: (I've got to find out where I belong again)
PL: On my own
MM: I've got to learn to be strong again
PL: On my own
MM: I never dreamed I'd spend one night alone
By my self

PL: I've got to find out what was wrong again
MM: My heart is saying that it's time again
PL: I have faith that I would shine again

PM: I have faith in me
MM: (By my self,, by my self)
