On My Own
Navigating Life's Winding Roads: On My Own by Haldor Lægreid
Lyrics
In tender years the path
In the early years of my life
Seemed longer than it ever really was
The journey seemed longer than it actually was
How could I know
How could I have foreseen
I realised as time went by I had to try
As time passed, I realized the need to make an effort
The world outside was mine
The world outside became accessible to me
You let me go
You allowed me to venture out
So I left and tried to find my way to paradise
So, I left in pursuit of my ideal place
The winding road that led me there was life
The challenging path I took was life itself
I'm on my own again
I find myself alone once again
Left all alone where I belong
Isolated in the place where I truly belong
I'm on my own again
I face solitude once more
Left all alone
Left entirely on my own
Now I've seen it all
Having experienced everything
I wouldn't change a day
I wouldn't change a single day
When curtains fall
When the chapter of life concludes
I'd do my show
I would perform my part
So at last I know
Finally, I understand
I've found my one true paradise
I have discovered my true paradise
The winding road that led me there was life
The challenging path that led me there was life itself
I'm on my own again
I find myself alone once again
Left all alone where I belong
Isolated in the place where I truly belong
I'm on my own again
I face solitude once more
I'm on my own
I am truly on my own
On my own
Emphasizing the solitude
On my own
-On my own, on my own
Repeated emphasis on being on one's own
again
Reiteration of facing solitude again
