If I Lived on My Own Songtext
von Deacon Blue

If I lived on my own
And had nobody else to care for
I′d go out when I want
Stay all night, come home later

I would own nothing but my own things
I'd only follow what chance brings
I wouldn′t spend my days thinking about you
If I lived on my own

If I lived on my own
Then you'd hear from me on your birthday
If you called I might be home
But if I missed you, it wouldn't hurt me


There′s plenty room in this house
Much more if you moved out
And I′d not have your things to worry about
If I lived on my own
If I lived on my own

I don't know why you′d ever need to know
But it gets so quiet when you have to go
There'll come a time when one of us is on our own

If I lived on my own
Would I spend my days thinking about you?
Would I reach for the phone
If I wanted to get your advice?

About getting through the longest nights
Or how to go from black to white
When everything is wrong, how do you make it right?
If I lived on my own
If I lived on my own
