In My Own Way (T&A Demo Sep 15, 1987)

I gathered a mountain
An ocean of teardrops
A castle of goodbyes
To hide myself in

I've waited a lifetime
For someone to find me
For someone to reach me
Somewhere to begin

You're a woman
I can tell by the look in your eyes
We're no strangers
I can tell by the way that you smile

I've painted the sunsets
The dawnings I missed you
The hours I kissed you
To keep my heart alive

It's the heat of your breathing
The way you are whispering
The urge of your wanting
I can't leave you behind

Now you're a woman
I can tell by the look in your eyes
We're no strangers
I can tell by the waves in the night
Whoa-whoa

I don't want to own you
I don't want to lead you
I just want to love you
In my own way
