	Story Behind the Song I originally wrote this at the age of 17 while watching the sunrise, after being up all night. I had been thinking (as we all sometimes do) about the girl I'd just broken up with for the 5th or 6th time. Over a decade later, I drug this tune out while an old friend (Jeff Pike of A1A fame)and I were sharing songs. He offered some additional lyrics and with his arranging, took me for my first trip into a studio" We recorded it in two days. It seemed that almost half the time was spent with myself trying to get through one vocal passage at the end of the break. Jeff had a lot of patience, but my ego tells me I think he liked what he heard. I hope you do to! Lyrics Sitting here watching the Sunrise In the early morning dawn Thinking darlin' you've got to realize Some morning You're gonna wake up and I'll be gone There's much about life I don't understand and things I've got to do on my own Sometimes now, I wake with the feeling I'm a long long way from home (chorus) Now don't let it stop you from dreaming and don't stop singing along But before you can make it with someone else You've got to learn to make it on your own Watching the clouds go by They'r driftin' away I may follow them tomorrow But I'm here with you today I don't want to see you crying Never want to leave you that way So just remember the good times darlin' and listen when I say (repeat chorus) I may be walkin' through the pouring rain And though you may not be with me We'll never find the dreams we're searching for Until we set them free (repeat chorus) You've almost got to make it on your own
