(Carole Boyer Sager/Melissa Manchester) I wake up and see The light of the day Shining on me Make my own time It's mine to spend Think to myself My own best friend It's not so bad all alone Comin' home to myself again Now I understand Whatever I feel is whoever I am Watching my life and how its grown Looking on back to friends I've known Its not so bad all alone Coming home to myself again It's not so bad to get lost in my tears And to laugh and to cry for the years gone by Oh my, oh my, Now somehow I know I've come a long way Got a long way to go But something inside Keeps making me strong And in the bad times Iâll get along 'Cause it's not so bad all alone Comin' home to myself again I'm Comin' home
