About On My Own

"Try It on My Own", titled "On My Own" for its single release, is a song by American recording artist Whitney Houston. It was written by Babyface, Jason Edmonds, Carole Bayer Sager, Aleese Simmons, and Nathan Walton for her fifth studio album Just Whitney (2002), with production handled by the former. A pop ballad, the song is about overcoming doubts or fears so a person can reach the point in their life where they can "try it on [their] own". The song became the project's third single and was released on February 11, 2003. It received acclaim from critics as well as fans; most of them who named it as the album's highlight. Like "Whatchulookinat" and "One of Those Days" before it, "On My Own" was a modest success, topping the Billboard Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart and reaching the top ten on the US Adult Contemporary charts. A music video, directed by David LaChapelle, was released to promote the single. Houston performed "Try It on My Own" on an episode of the television series Boston Public ("Chapter 66"), which first aired in May 2003, and on the 2003 VH1 Divas Duets: An Honors Concert for the VH1 Save the Music Foundation.

We won’t be surprised again
Darlin’ we have no end I know
I think we should try again
Oh but I want you in my arms

I can’t sleep alone when you’re on my mind
I’m movin’ slowly when I’m on my own
Hurts to see ya go when I know that you’re high again

Pushin’ my final pin
I can’t seem to kick it all
Just forcing the day to end
And I know it, we know it

Baby I can’t sleep alone when you’re on my mind
I’m movin’ slowly when I’m on my own
Hurts to see ya go but I won’t say goodbye again
