Out Here On My Own Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sometimes I wonder where I've been
Who I am
Do I fit in?
Make believing is hard alone
Out here on my own
[Verse 2]
We're always proving who we are
Always reaching for that rising star
To guide me far
And shine me home
Out here on my own
[Chorus]
When I'm down and feeling blue
I close my eyes so I can be with you
Oh, baby, be strong for me
Baby, belong to me
Help me through
Help me need you
[Verse 3]
Until the morning sun appears
Making light of all my fears
I dry the tears
I've never shown
Out here on my own
Sometimes I wonder where I've been
Who I am
Do I fit in?
Make believing is hard alone
Out here on my own
[Verse 2]
We're always proving who we are
Always reaching for that rising star
To guide me far
And shine me home
Out here on my own
[Chorus]
When I'm down and feeling blue
I close my eyes so I can be with you
Oh, baby, be strong for me
Baby, belong to me
Help me through
Help me need you
[Verse 3]
Until the morning sun appears
Making light of all my fears
I dry the tears
I've never shown
Out here on my own
[Chorus]
But when I'm down and feeling blue
I close my eyes so I can be with you
Oh, baby, be strong for me
Baby, belong to me
Help me through
Help me need you
[Verse 1]
Sometimes I wonder
Where I've been
Who I am
Do I fit in?
I may not win
But I can't be thrown
Out here on my own
[Outro]
Out here on my own
But when I'm down and feeling blue
I close my eyes so I can be with you
Oh, baby, be strong for me
Baby, belong to me
Help me through
Help me need you
[Verse 1]
Sometimes I wonder
Where I've been
Who I am
Do I fit in?
I may not win
But I can't be thrown
Out here on my own
[Outro]
Out here on my own
