On Your Own Lyrics - Wishbone Ash

The eagle soars and echoes my name 

Cliff face, granite grain 

Black stone, shining gem 

Don't want to fall in no devil's den 

You're thrown a line, so you hold on tight 

So many wonders to be seen 

It don't come easy and you work to be free 

There is no guarantee 

You're on your own 

Trying your best not to fall 

You're on your own 

Trying to make sense of it all 

Golden path, land of dreams 

Enchanted kingdom, not all it seems 

Royal realm, rules within 

A sacred journey, now, where to begin? 

You could be home tending the fire 

You could do nothing at all 

But if you want to reach for something higher 

You've gotta scale that wall 

You're on your own 

Trying your best not to fall 

You're on your own 

Trying to make sense of it all 

Jagged edge meets the sky 

Crystal vision flows on by 

As you reach for the stars 

Then you find who you really are 

Nothing ventured, nothing gained 

Nothing ever stays the same 

You search your soul, as yet untamed 

It can bring you pleasure or pain 

You're on your own 

Trying your best not to fall 

You're on your own 

Trying to make sense of it all 

On your own 

Trying your best not to fall 

On your own 

On your own 

On your own 

On your own 

On your own
