Maybe I want to be single
maybe I like myself that way
I can do just as I please
no matter what they say
Maybe I like being alone
and take pleasure in being myself
having fun and loving life
I am not left upon the shelf
I am dancing and I'm singing
I read and draw and paint
maybe I don't want to be a couple
unhappy? no I ain't..
Maybe I like to be silent
and not have to talk for days
I can come and go as I please
I am happy in so many ways
And I like being by myself
I feel comfortable with me
don't assume I need another
I am happy and carefree
I'm not ready to be 'taken'
I am as happy as can be
my life's just the way I want it
I am happy just being.. me
maybe I like myself that way
I can do just as I please
no matter what they say
Maybe I like being alone
and take pleasure in being myself
having fun and loving life
I am not left upon the shelf
I am dancing and I'm singing
I read and draw and paint
maybe I don't want to be a couple
unhappy? no I ain't..
Maybe I like to be silent
and not have to talk for days
I can come and go as I please
I am happy in so many ways
And I like being by myself
I feel comfortable with me
don't assume I need another
I am happy and carefree
I'm not ready to be 'taken'
I am as happy as can be
my life's just the way I want it
I am happy just being.. me
It seems I have spent my whole life with someone else. I lived at home until I was married at 18, lived with my husband until I was 35. Until now, I'd never had a room to myself and I have never lived alone. Now I find I like my space. I love to do the things I love. I am happy and content to be just me. I can be carefree and wander, finding out more and more about myself that I didn't know before. One day, maybe I will find love, or love will find me... either way,
I'm in no rush.. i'm just enjoying the scenery.
I'm in no rush.. i'm just enjoying the scenery.
