My Life

Lyrics

Got a call from an old friend we'd used to be real close  
Said he couldn't go on the American way  
Closed the shop, sold the house, bought a ticket to the west coast  
Now he gives them a stand-up routine in L.A.  
  
I don't need you to worry for me cause I'm alright  
I don't want you to tell me it's time to come home  
I don't care what you say anymore this is my life  
Go ahead with your own life leave me alone  
  
I never said you had to offer me a second chance  
I never said I was a victim of circumstance  
I still belong  
Don't get me wrong  
And you can speak your mind  
But not on my time  
  
They will tell you you can't sleep alone in a strange place  
Then they'll tell you can't sleep with somebody else  
Ah but sooner or later you sleep in your own space  
Either way it's O.K. you wake up with yourself
