verse 1 I tried so many times to make the decision to leave you. But something holds me back and I can't escape if I tried to. Can't stop relying on your being by my side. So I just have to keep swallowing my pride. refrain 1 I wanna make it on my own, make it on my own, make it on my own. I wanna make it on my own, make it on my own, make it on my own. verse 2 You gotta understand I'm a lady with a lot ambition. But I haven't got the strength I need to make a decision. Deep-down I want happiness or success. I'm so scared to put love to the test. refrain 2 I wanna make it on my own, make it on my own, make it on my own. I wanna make it on my own, make it on my own, make it on my own. bridge 1 I wanna escape, but you're holding me back, holding me back, holding me back. bridge 2 If I don't make a move, I don't know how long I'll last. I want you in my future, but I can't stop living in the past. bridge 3 I want you to go, but I've got to stay. I need you too much to ever break away. conclusion I wanna make it on my own, make it on my own, make it on my own. I wanna make it on my own, make it on my own, make it on my own. Ad-lib scatting Don't go ringing my telephone. I'm gonna tell my mama to say that I'm not home. |
