I'm on my own and I'm happy here
For the first time in several years
I have not needed to shed a tear
For any boy
I cannot sing of heartache
Because I do not know it
There is no pain buried inside me
So that only my eyes show it
I'm on my own and I'm happy here
For the first time in several years
I have not needed to shed a tear
For any boy
I cannot fall asleep
Because I have too much on my mind
But it's not what you'd expect to find
I'm making plans for my future alone
Alone and content in this happy home
I'm on my own and I'm happy here
For the first time in several years
I have not needed to shed a tear
For any boy
I cannot write a song for love
Because I have no love to write about
I have nothing to whine about
Nothing to lament finding out
I'm on my own and I'm happy here
For the first time in several years
I have not needed to shed a tear
For any boy
And I don't want to be that way again.
