- On My Own Lyrics / with translationsIf 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
[Chorus:]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Chorus:]
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
You dragged yourself right down
You did not hear a sound
But for the tapping of your teardrops
On the ground
[Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
