[Verse]
Got a call fr
om an old frie
nd we used to
be real close
Said he coul
dn't go on the
American way
Closed the s
hop, sold the
house, bought
a ticket to th
e 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 aaalright
I don't want
you to tell me
it's time to
come home
I don't care
what you say a
nymore this is
/
my life
Go ahead wi
th your own li
fe leave me al
one
[Chorus]
I never s
aid you had to
offer me a se
#
cond chance
I never
said I was a
victim of circ
umsta-aance
I still belo
/
oong, don
't get me wroo
ong
And you can
speak your mi
nd - but nooot

[Verse 2]
They will tell
you you can't
sleep alone i
n a straaange
place
Then they'll
tell you can't
sleep with so
mebody else
Ah but sooner
or later you

ooown space
Either way i
t's O.K. you w
ake up with yo
urself
I don't need
you to worry
for me cause I
'm aaalright
I don't want
you to tell me
