Make It On My Own - Alison Limerick

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

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 ya know I'm gonna need a friend 'Til I get used to losing you Let me keep on using you 'Til 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 That's all I mean to do 'Til I can make it on my own Surely someday I'll wake up and see the mornin' sun Without another lonely night behind me Then I'll know I'm over you and all my cryin's done No more hurtin' memories can find me But 'til then, Lord ya know I'm gonna need a friend 'Til I get used to losing you Let me keep on using you 'Til I can make it on my own 'Til I can make it on my own

This next song is for my father Bob And he thought he was Italian All he listened to was the opera And his son grew up and wanted to live the opera Tough, you think you've got the stuff You're telling me and anyone You're hard enough You don't have to put up a fight You don't have to always be right Let me take some of the punches For you tonight Listen to me now I need to let you know You don't have to go it alone And it's you when I look in the mirror And it's you when I don't pick up the phone Sometimes you can't make it on your own We fight all the time You and I, that's alright We're the same soul I don't need, I don't need to hear you say That if we weren't so alike You'd like me a whole lot more Listen to me now I need to let you know You don't have to go it alone And it's you when I look in the mirror And it's you when I don't pick up the phone Sometimes you can't make it on your own Yeah, yeah, yeah I know that we don't talk I'm sick of it all But can you hear me when I Sing, you're the reason I sing You're the reason why the opera is in me Where are we now?* Still got to let you know A house still don't make a home Don't leave me here alone And it's you when I look in the mirror And it's you that makes it hard to let go Sometimes you can't make it on your own Sometimes you can't make it The best you can do is to fake it Sometimes you can't make it on your own Vidi o mare quant'è bello Spriri tantu sentimento Guardo, guardo, cielo, cielo
