My Life Lyrics - Billy Joel

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. 

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

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

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 

Ah, but sooner or later you sleep 

In your own space 

Either way it's okay 

You wake up with yourself 

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 

I don't care what you say anymore, this is my life 

Go ahead with your own life and leave me alone
