Life On Your Own
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Winter is approaching
ThereÕs snow upon the ground
ItÕs good of you to visit me
IÕm glad you came around
I donÕt know how you found me
I didnÕt let you know
I only moved to this address
About a week ago
I guess you think I ran out
But thatÕs not true
Other people settle down
I never do
I always have to move on
Just have to go
IÕve often wondered why that is
IÕd like to say but I just donÕt know
I guess you always wanted
Life on your own
I guess you always wanted
Life on your own
Up here the summerÕs shorter
And winterÕs very cold
IÕm looking forward to the peace
My lonely life will hold
IÕm really glad you came here
Thank you for the talk
ItÕs funny how my problem stopped
When we went for a walk
Standing here together
Means so much
I wonÕt forget your confidence
I wonÕt forget your touch
You know IÕll come to see you
Passing through
WeÕll always be a world apart
IÕll travel on but I will be true
I guess you always wanted
Life on your own
I guess you always wanted
Life on your own
I guess you always wanted
Life on your own
I guess you always wanted
Life on your own
