Green River Ordinance - On Your Own lyrics
[Green River Ordinance - On Your Own lyrics]
Watchin' the time go
The second hand is movin' to fast
Who ever thought that it ever
Really ever would last
And if your conscience weighs
A little heavy tonight
Maybe you'll find it, maybe you'll find
Nobody told you that nothin' plays
Out like it seems
Twenty years now runnin' scared of
All of your dreams
Is it everything you thought it would be?
When you come back, I'll be alright
On your own again, back to where it all began
The phone don't ring and the tears they fall
But, you carry on and on and on
Past is past, you never really gave it a shot
To survive with your one last
Shot in the dark
And if your conscience weighs
A little heavy tonight
Maybe you'll find that
Empty boxes on the stairs
Remind you that there's no one there
Is it everything you thought it would be?
You'll see
When you come back, I'll be alright
On your own again, back to where it all began
The phone don't ring and the tears they fall
But, you carry on and on and on
You gotta go, you'll never know
Just how it all will turn out
Forget what's done
The western turn leaves no doubt
On your own again, back to where it all began
The phone don't ring and the tears they fall
But, you carry on and on and on
On your own again, back to where it all began
The phone don't ring and the tears they fall
But, you carry on and on and on
On your own again, back to where it all began
The phone don't ring and the tears they fall
But, you carry on and on and on
You gotta go
(when you come back I'll be alright)
On and on and on
(when you come back I'll be alright)
You gotta go
(when you come back I'll be alright)
On and on and on
(when you come back I'll be alright)
You gotta go
(when you come back I'll be alright)
On and on and on
(when you come back I'll be alright)
You gotta go, you gotta go
You gotta go, you gotta go
The second hand is movin' to fast
Who ever thought that it ever
Really ever would last
And if your conscience weighs
A little heavy tonight
Maybe you'll find it, maybe you'll find
Nobody told you that nothin' plays
Out like it seems
Twenty years now runnin' scared of
All of your dreams
Is it everything you thought it would be?
When you come back, I'll be alright
On your own again, back to where it all began
The phone don't ring and the tears they fall
But, you carry on and on and on
Past is past, you never really gave it a shot
To survive with your one last
Shot in the dark
And if your conscience weighs
A little heavy tonight
Maybe you'll find that
Empty boxes on the stairs
Remind you that there's no one there
Is it everything you thought it would be?
You'll see
When you come back, I'll be alright
On your own again, back to where it all began
The phone don't ring and the tears they fall
But, you carry on and on and on
You gotta go, you'll never know
Just how it all will turn out
Forget what's done
The western turn leaves no doubt
On your own again, back to where it all began
The phone don't ring and the tears they fall
But, you carry on and on and on
On your own again, back to where it all began
The phone don't ring and the tears they fall
But, you carry on and on and on
On your own again, back to where it all began
The phone don't ring and the tears they fall
But, you carry on and on and on
You gotta go
(when you come back I'll be alright)
On and on and on
(when you come back I'll be alright)
You gotta go
(when you come back I'll be alright)
On and on and on
(when you come back I'll be alright)
You gotta go
(when you come back I'll be alright)
On and on and on
(when you come back I'll be alright)
You gotta go, you gotta go
You gotta go, you gotta go
