I woke up by myself in the middle of the night I dreamed you were lying by my side And I reached out to touch you In the empty space It's been such a long time since I kissed your face Oh It ain't easy x 3 On your own It ain't easy x 3 When you're on your own I don't want to speak When the sun comes up Who's the man on the corner With an empty cup Nobody sees him And no one cares Nobody seems to know that he's been there Oh It ain't easy x 3 On your own It ain't easy x 3 When you're on your own It ain't easy on your own It ain't easy Oh, it ain't easy on your own Walking in the park Just the other day I know that you saw me When you looked away You were holding his hand like you once held mine And the stars fell down In the back of my mind Lord It ain't easy x 3 When you're on your own It ain't easy x 3 On your own It ain't easy It ain't easy It ain't easy on your own
