 LYRICS
**********
You're on your own
but you're not alone
'cause I wanna be where you are
I cry your name
a million times a day
'cause I wanna be where ever you are tonight
Don't go easy on me now
Don't go easy on me now

I try to see
the simplicity
that's made out of wooden-log comfort
But every time
you run through my mind
I cannot believe the sorrow I feel
Don't go easy on me now
Don't go easy on me now

Surfing the surface without no lights on
I don't wanna be there when they put the lights on
I don't wanna cry your name
I don't wanna be ashamed
Trust and believe me and let it all remain the same

You're on your own
but you're not alone
'cause I wanna be where you are
To my surprise
I've come to realize
that I'll never be wherever you are tonight
If you go easy on me now
Don't go easy on me now
