V1)
I tread the fine line
Between success and failure
Swallow delusion and pride
Was on the sidelines
But now it's centre stage
With nowhere to go - left to hide
Exposed and no disguise
I'll cross my bridge of sighs
But then I close my eyes
And hear your voice....
Ch)
Don't you know
You can do it
You can do it on your own
On your own
On your own
You can do it on your own
Don't you -
Know you can do it
You can do it on your own
On your own
On your own
You can do.... It...
V2)
Gotta focus through my fears
Gotta keep attention
To the job in hand, oh oh ooh
Keep my mind crystal clear
Need to walk that rope so thin
To do everything that I planned
I'll start and say hello
It's not a Broadway show
But then I close my eyes
And hear your voice....
Ch)
Don't you know
You can do it
You can do it on your own
On your own
On your own
You can do it on your own
Don't you -
Know you can do it
You can do it on your own
On your own
On your own
You can do.... It...
MID 8)
Must count the first time
Cos when that chance has gone
Regret ....cannot bring it back
Can't stop or freeze time
I'm going on to win
Cos I'm on the winning side of me....
Ch) Semi Accapella
Don't you know
You can do it
You can do it on your own
On your own
On your own
You can do it on your own
Don't you -
Know you can do it
You can do it on your own
On your own
On your own
You can do.... It...
V3)
Now he's in front of me
Those words I have to say
Just cannot come out of my mouth
Can't change my destiny
This guy I said I'd marry
Cannot be put into doubt
Cos he's not meant to be
Need strength to set me free
If you were next to me
You'd say to me
Ch)
Don't you know
You can do it
You can do it on your own
On your own
On your own
You can do it on your own
Don't you -
Know you can do it
You can do it on your own
On your own
On your own
You can do.... It...
To fade
