Own True Way - Great Big Sea
(written by Alan Doyle / S?an McCann / Chris Trapper)
It takes a lot to get to the top
And a little just to fall off quick
And I think I've seen you here before.
Sometimes you fly so high
So fast it makes you sick
You won the battle and lost the war
But I don't mind if you say,
Every time you talk to me
Every time we talk
CHORUS:
We came, we saw
We conquered and crumbled
In our own true way
We loved, we fought
We rocked and we tumbled
In our own true way
Well, I believe in Brotherhood
And the good of all mankind
But I admit it's hard to find
But, if you wanna talk
Just come and knock
It don't matter what the time
Solitude is no friend of mine
And I don't mind if you say,
Every time you talk to me
Every time we talk
CHORUS
It's hard to be from a rock in the sea
Livin' in a big, steel town
Finding unfamiliar faces all around.
You heard 'em tellin' stupid jokes
You heard 'em laugh every time you spoke
But you don't let nobody put you down.
But I don't mind if you say,
Every time you talk to me
Every time you talk to me
Every time we talk
CHORUS
