HOME TO MYSELF

Melissa Manchester
Dusty Springfield


I wake up and see
The lights of the day
Shining on me
Make my own time
It's mine to spend
Think to myself
My own best friend
It's not so bad all alone
Coming home to myself
Again.

Now I understand
Whatever I feel
Is whoever I am
Watching my life
And how it has grown
Looking on back
To the things I have known
And it's not so bad all alone
Coming home to myself
Again.

It's not so bad
To get lost in my tears
And to laugh and to cry
For the years gone by
Oh my,oh my.

Now somehow I know
I've come a long way
Gotta long way to go
But something inside
Is making me strong
And in the bad times
I'll get along
Cuz,it's not so bad
All alone coming
home to myself
again.

I'm comin' home.
