[Verse 1]
He said you better think about this now
Though you won't listen anyhow
There's so much more you don't yet know
And soon you'll feel that cold wind blow
By then you will be out there on your own
[Verse 2]
But that was back when I still knew it all
And the pride was not connected to the fall
Had to leave the town that I'd outgrown
For the glory of the open road
Couldn't wait to be out there on my own
[Chorus]
On your own, that's when you really learn
Looking back, you'll see where you should have turned
'Cause it's harder now to find your way back home
On your own
[Verse 3]
Now my memories are like to postcards to myself
Some beautiful and some pushed back on a shelf
It was a crooked road through parts unknown
Where setbacks turned to stepping stones
That's what you get for traveling on your own
[Chorus]
On your own, that's when you really learn
Looking back, you'll see where you should have turned
'Cause it's harder now to find your way back home
On your own
[Outro]
On your own, that's when you really learn
Looking back, you'll see where you should have turned
Realize how much faster time has flown
And it's harder now to find your way back home
On your own
He said you better think about this now
Though you won't listen anyhow
There's so much more you don't yet know
And soon you'll feel that cold wind blow
By then you will be out there on your own
[Verse 2]
But that was back when I still knew it all
And the pride was not connected to the fall
Had to leave the town that I'd outgrown
For the glory of the open road
Couldn't wait to be out there on my own
[Chorus]
On your own, that's when you really learn
Looking back, you'll see where you should have turned
'Cause it's harder now to find your way back home
On your own
[Verse 3]
Now my memories are like to postcards to myself
Some beautiful and some pushed back on a shelf
It was a crooked road through parts unknown
Where setbacks turned to stepping stones
That's what you get for traveling on your own
[Chorus]
On your own, that's when you really learn
Looking back, you'll see where you should have turned
'Cause it's harder now to find your way back home
On your own
[Outro]
On your own, that's when you really learn
Looking back, you'll see where you should have turned
Realize how much faster time has flown
And it's harder now to find your way back home
On your own
