Till I Can Make It On My Own — текст песни (Kenny Rogers)

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 lean on you
that`s all I mean to do
till 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 hurting memories can find me.

But till then ...
Lord, you know, I`m gonna need a friend
till I get used to losing you ...
