Til I Can Make It On My Own Lyrics

Til I Can Make It On My Own lyrics

(George Richey/Billy Sherrill/Tammy Wynette)



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.

'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.

But 'til then I'll lean on you,

That's all I mean to
do.

'Til I can 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 hurtin' memories can
find me.



But 'til then, 

Lord, you 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.
