Great Big Sea - Own True Way lyrics

It takes a lot to get to the top
And a little just to fall off and quit
And I think I've seen you here before

Sometimes you fly so high
So fast it makes you sick
You won the battle and lost the war

And I don't mind if you say
Every time you talk to me every time we talk
We came, we saw, we conquered and crumbled
In our own true way we loved, we fought
We rocked and we tumbled in our own true way
Our own true way
Well I believe in the brotherhood
And the good of all mankind but, I admit
It's hard to find

But, if you want to talk just come and talk
It don't matter what the time
Solitude is no friend of mine

And I don't mind if you say
Every time you talk to me every time we talk
We came, we saw, we conquered and crumbled
In our own true way we loved, we fought
We rocked and we tumbled in our own true way

And I don't mind

It's hard to be from a rock in the sea
Living in a big steel town
Finding unfamiliar faces all around
You heard 'em telling stupid jokes
You heard 'em laugh everytime you spoke
But, you don't let 'em put you down

And I don't mind if you say
Everytime you talk to me
Everytime you talk to me
Everytime you talk to me
Everytime you talk to me
We came, we saw, we conquered and crumbled
In our own true way we loved, we fought
We rocked and we tumbled in our own true way
In our own true way i don't mind
If you say
