On My Own
Ollie Green Lyrics

I'm stuck over here
Despite wanting to be with you, I am physically stuck in this place.

You're all the way there
We are separated by distance, and you are far away.

It's crazy number of months but I don't care
Despite the long time we've been apart, I still want to be with you and am willing to wait.

I'm out on my own
I am currently alone and not with you.

My hands are tied
I feel stuck and unable to do anything to change our situation.

I said that distances don't matter but I lied
Despite my previous claims that distance is not a barrier to our relationship, I now realize it is.

I start to wonder if I'm right where I'm supposed to be
I am questioning whether I am in the right place in life, including whether being without you is the right choice.

Cause if that's true, then why aren't you here close to me?
If I am meant to be without you, then why am I not content and why are you not here with me?

Can anyone help me?
I am seeking assistance from anyone who can help me feel better and less alone.

Cause I feel a little low
I feel sad and low in spirits.

I'm tired of being alone
I am tired of being alone and without you.

I'm tired of being alone tonight
Tonight in particular, I feel especially tired of being alone.

Do you think you could help me?
I am asking for your help specifically in feeling better and less alone.

cause I'm sinking like a stone
I feel like I am drowning or sinking lower and lower.

I know quite myself
I understand myself and my feelings well.

I should go back to sleep
I should try to rest and sleep, because it may help me feel better.

Then at least I'll see you in my dreams
In my dreams, I can at least see you and be with you in some way.

I never used to care
In the past, I did not care about being alone or separated from you.

I just built a wall
I put up a metaphorical wall to try and protect myself emotionally.

now brick by brick it only falls
The wall I built is slowly crumbling, and I am feeling vulnerable and exposed.

then I start to wonder if I'm right where I'm supposed to be
I am once again questioning whether I am in the right place in life.

Cause if that's true then why aren't you here holding me?
If I am meant to be without you, then why do I still want you to be here with me and hold me?

I've been here before
I have felt this way before, and it is not a new feeling for me.

Missing you
I am missing you and longing to be with you.

Come on open the door
I am asking you to open your heart and let me in emotionally and romantically.

is over do
I am tired of waiting and want our separation to be over.

Come on give me some more
I am asking you to give me more of your affection and attention.

you gotta give me some more,
I am insisting that you give me more of your love and attention.

Stick to me like glue
I want us to be close and connected, like glue sticks things together.

Don't tell me I'm on my own
I am pleading for you not to confirm that I am alone and without you.

Don't tell me I'm on my own tonight
Tonight in particular, I need to feel like I am not alone and have your support.
