lyrics

Can you tell me how it is?
And how it’s going to be?
Cause’ I can’t live like this
Darling can’t you see

Tell me how to go alone
To face all things on my own
Cause’ I can’t work it out
Not without a doubt

I took my heart down a path
With an end I couldn’t see
Promised to be yours
Said I’d be what I couldn’t be

Tell me how to go alone
To face all things on my own
Cause’ I can’t work it out
Not without a doubt

I’m my own worst enemy
Hard on myself when I’m in need
I can’t hold off and I can’t hold back
Just can’t follow the narrow path

Tell me how to go alone
To face all things on my own
Cause’ I can’t work it out
Not without a doubt

There’s still so much ahead
Wide streams that I must cross
Cause’ a heart without a home
Is a heart that’s lost

Tell me how to go alone
Cause I can’t do this my own
I can’t work it out
Not without a doubt
