I Wasn't Meant to Live My Life Alone

Tammy Wynette

Compositor: Don Schlitz / Paul Overstreet

All the times I've fallin' victim to my pride
Patiently, you have waited by my side
My guiding light through my darkest night
You're the one thing I do right.
No, I wasn't meant to live my life alone
The load is just too heavy
And the road is just too long
When I try to do it all myself
It always turns out wrong
No, I wasn't meant to live my life alone.

But I've tried
A million times to take control
But I find
I always dig myself a hole
And there I stand with a broken plan
Reachin' for your hand.

'Cause I wasn't meant to live my life alone
The load is just too heavy
And the road is just too long
When I try to do it all myself
I find I'm not that strong.

No, I wasn't meant to live my life
I wasn't meant to live my life
I wasn't meant to live my life alone...
