On my own And livin' in a world alone Gets better everyday That I don't have to say I'm sorry I'm coming home I'm gonna make it on my own I'll always take the harder road Get's better everyday That I don't have to say I'm sorry I'm coming home (I'll make it on my own) I'm sorry, I won't be comin' home (I'll make it on my own) I'm sorry, I won't be comin' home (I'll make it on my own) I'm sorry, I won't be comin' home (I'll make it on my own) I'm sorry, I won't be comin' home.
