In My Own Way

I gathered a mountain

An ocean of teardrops

A castle of break-ups

To hide myself inIve waited a lifetime

For someone to find me

For someone to reach me

Somewhere to beginNow Im a woman

I can tell by the look in your eyes

Were no strangers

I can tell by the way that you smileIve painted the sunsets

The dawnings Ive missed you

The hours Ive kissed you

To keep my heart aliveIts the heat of your breathing

The way you are whispering

The urge of your wanting

I cant leave you behindNow Im a woman

I can tell by the look in your eyes

Were no strangers

I can tell by the waves in the nightYou bring a little hope, bring a little loveI dont want to own you

I dont want to lead you

I just want to love youIn my own way
