By MyselfCher

Songwriter: Arthur Schwartz Howard Dietz

Producer: Sonny Bono

I gotta go on my way by myself
Because this is the end of romance
I gotta go my way all by myself
Love it's only it's only a dance
I'm gonna try to apply myself
And teach my poor heart how to sing
I gotta go I want to go my way all by myself
Just like just like a bird on a wing
I'm gonna face the unknown
I'm gonna feel I'm gonna feel the way on my own
Cause nobody knows better than I myself
You see I'm by myself all alone

I gotta go I gotta go on my way by myself
This is the end, the end, the end end of romance
I gotta go I gotta go my way all by myself
Love is only a dance
Cause I gotta go I gotta see, I gotta
Try my own thing by myself
And teach my poor heart how to sing
I gotta go I gotta try my own thing all by myself
Just like a bird I'm out on a wing
I'm gonna face the unknown
I'm wanna feel I gotta feel I wanna feel
A world of my own
Nobody nobody knows better than I myself
You see I'm by myself all alone

Cher

Cher is an American singer, songwriter, actress, model, fashion designer, television host, comedian, dancer, businesswoman, philanthropist, author, film producer, director, and record producer.

Cher gained popularity in 1965 as one-half of the folk rock husband–wife duo Sonny & Cher after their first hit, “I Got You Babe”. She began her solo career simultaneously, releasing in 1966 her first million-seller song, “Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)”. After the duo had lost its young audience owing to their monogamous, anti-drug lifestyle during the period of the sexual revolution and the rise of the drug culture, she returned to stardom in the 1970s as a television personality with her shows The Sonny & Cher Comedy Hour, watched by over 30 million viewers weekly during its three-year run, and Cher. She became a fashion trendsetter by wearing elaborate outfits on her television shows. While working on television, she established herself as a solo artist with the number-one singles “Gypsys, Tramps & Thieves”, “Half-Breed”, and “Dark Lady”. After her divorce from Sonny Bono in 1975, Cher’s much-publicized personal life led to a decline in her career, although she launched a minor comeback in 1979 with the disco-oriented album Take Me Home and earned $300,000 a week for her 1980–1982 residency show in Las Vegas.

In the early 1980s, Cher made her Broadway debut, and then starred in the film Silkwood. Her performance earned her a nomination for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress in 1983. In the ensuing years, she starred in films such as Mask, The Witches of Eastwick, and Moonstruck. She made her directorial debut in the 1996 film If These Walls Could Talk. At the same time, she established herself as a rock singer by releasing platinum albums such as Heart of Stone (1989) and top-ten singles such as “I Found Someone” and “If I Could Turn Back Time”. She reached a new commercial peak in 1998 with the song “Believe”, which features the pioneering use of Auto-Tune, also known as the “Cher effect”. Her 2002–2005 Living The Farewell Tour ended up as the highest-grossing music tour by a female artist then. In 2008, she signed a $60 million per-year deal to headline the Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas for three years. After seven years of absence, she returned to film in the 2010 musical Burlesque. Cher’s first studio album in 12 years, Closer to the Truth, became her highest-charting solo album in the U.S. to date.
