I'll need time...
To get you off my mind
And I may sometimes bother you
Try to be in touch with you
Even ask too much of you
From time to time

Now and then...
Lord, you know I'll need a friend
Til I get used to losing you
Let me keep on using you
Til I can make it on my own

I'll get by...
But no matter how I try
There'll be times you know I'll call
Chances are my tears will fall
And I'll have no pride at all
From time to time

But they say...
Oh, there'd be a brighter day
Until then I'll lean on you
That's all I mean to do
Til I can make it on my own

Surely someday I'll wake up and see the morning sun
Without another lonely night behind me
Then I'll know I'm over you and all my crying's done
Mo more hurtin' memories can find me

But til then...
Lord, you know I'm gonna need a friend
Til I get used to losing you
Let me keep on using you
Til I can make it on my own
Til I can make it on my own...
