Till I Can Make it on My Own

This song came along at a time when I really

Needed the song to help me through some troubled times

And at a time when I really believed in what I was writing

So the song is special to me

I'll need time to get you off my mind

And I may sometimes bother you

Try to be in touch with you

Even ask too much of you from time to time

Now and then

Lord, you know I'll need a friend

Till I get used to losing you

Let me keep on using you

Till I can make it on my own

I'll get by

But no matter how I try

There'll be times you know I'll call

Chances are my tears will fall

And I'll have no pride at all, from time to time

But they say

Oh, there'll be a brighter day

But till then, I'll lean on you

That's all I mean to do

Till I can never make it on my own

Surely someday, I'll look up and see the morning sun

Without another lonely night behind me

Then I'll know I'm over you and all my crying's done

No more hurting memories can find me

But till then

Lord, you know I'm gonna need a friend

Till I get used to losing you

Let me keep on using you, till I can make it on my own

Till I can make it on my own
