When I'm down and feelin' blue

Oh, baby be strong for me;

Help me through
Help me need you

Out here on my own
But when I'm down and feelin' blue
I close my eyes so I can be with you
Oh, baby be strong for me;
Baby, belong to me
Help me through
Help me need you
Sometimes I wonder where I've been
Who I am
Do I fit in
I may not win
But I can't be thrown
Out here on my own
Out here on my own
Out Here On My Own was written by Lesley Gore & Michael Gore.
