Lyrics
0:30Got a call from an old friend
0:32We used to be real close
0:37Said he couldn't go on the American way
0:44Closed the shop sold the house
0:46Bought a ticket to the West Coast
0:51Now he gives them a stand-up routine in L A
1:10I don't need you to worry
1:12For me cause I'm alright
1:16I don't want you to tell me
1:19It's time to come home
1:24I don't care what you say anymore
1:27This is my life
1:32Go ahead with your own life
1:34Leave me alone
1:37I never said you had to offer me a second chance
1:40(I never said you had to)
1:44I never said I was a victim of circumstance
1:48(I never said)
1:50I still belong don't get me wrong
1:58You can speak your mind
2:00But not on my time
2:05They will tell you
2:06You can't sleep alone in a strange place
2:12Then they'll tell you
2:13You can't sleep with somebody else
2:19Ah but sooner or later you sleep in your own space
2:27Either way it's okay to wake up with yourself
2:45I don't need you to worry
2:47For me cause I'm alright
2:52I don't want you to tell me
2:55It's time to come home
3:00I don't care what you say anymore
3:03This is my life
3:07Go ahead with your own life
3:09Leave me alone
3:12I never said you had to offer me a second chance
3:16(I never said you had to)
3:19I never said I was a victim of circumstance
3:23(Of cirumstance)
3:26I still belong don't get me wrong
3:34You can speak your mind
3:36But not on my time
3:55I don't care what you say anymore
3:58This is my life
4:02Go ahead with your own life
4:04Leave me alone
4:10Keep it to yourself it's my life
4:17Keep it to yourself it's my life
4:24Keep it to yourself it's my life
4:31Keep it to yourself it's my life
