Callis/Oakey/Wright)



Winter is approaching

ThereÕs snow upon the ground

ItÕs good of you to visit me

IÕm glad you came around

I donÕt know how you found me

I didnÕt let you know

I only moved to this address

About a week ago

I guess you think I ran out

But thatÕs not true

Other people settle down

I never do

I always have to move on

Just have to go

IÕve often wondered why that is

IÕd like to say but I just donÕt know



I guess you always wanted

Life on your own

I guess you always wanted

Life on your own



Up here the summerÕs shorter

And winterÕs very cold

IÕm looking forward to the peace

My lonely life will hold

IÕm really glad you came here

Thank you for the talk

ItÕs funny how my problem stopped

When we went for a walk

Standing here together

Means so much

I wonÕt forget your confidence

I wonÕt forget your touch

You know IÕll come to see you

Passing through

WeÕll always be a world apart

IÕll travel on but I will be true



I guess you always wanted

Life on your own

I guess you always wanted

Life on your own

I guess you always wanted

Life on your own

I guess you always wanted

Life on your own
