lyrics

Can you find what you know?
You got a long way to go
I wouldn't want to be standing in your shoes
Though the good Lord knows I have been there before
Is it too hard to make it on your own?
I said look out the door
You got a light up ahead

I could sing a song
Could you sing along?
A friend of mine was at the back door
But would he be there anymore?
Is it too hard to make it on your own?
I said look out the door
You got a light up ahead

Now that woman can be a woman for you
Can you learn to let it be true?
You know sometimes things just ain't what they seem
You got to lose yourself in your dream
And you can stay there just as long as you choose
Got to lose yourself in your dream
And can stay there just as long as you please

Is it too hard to make it on your own?
I said look out the door
You got a light up ahead
