My life - Billy Joel

 

 Billy Joel-My Life

Got a call from an old friend We
 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. CHORUS 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, and 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 you can't sleep
 with somebody else But sooner or
 later you sleep In your own space Either
 way it's okay to wake up with yourself CHORUS
