Sorry for Myself Songtext
von Peter Kingsbery

"If someone asked me what I′d want
To live with you in peace and love..."

You got me feeling sorry for myself
You know that's not where it′s at
I know perfectly well I'm free
To be who I want to be
And there's no turning back

You got me feeling sorry for myself
Never thought that I′d be such a drag
Though I′d give up my heart and soul
To people I don't even know
Just to get a laugh

What did you say
That stopped all time
And started me back
Down this road again
There′s a world out there
Women of the night
And I still sit here dreaming


You got me feeling sorry for myself
Had me eating right out of your hand
And you probably feel some pain
And I'm no longer bound and chained
We do the best we can

What did you say
That stopped all time
And started me back
Down this road again
There′s a world out there
Women of the night

You got me feeling sorry for myself
Now you know that's not where it′s at
I know perfectly well I'm free
To be who I wanna be

There's no turning back
There′s no turning back


What did you say
Trying to wish me well
Did you ever stop
Just once to ask yourself
Should I be so bold
To speak free at will
Or should I try not
To change the unforeseeable

And the voice I hear of humility
Is it really you or was it meant for me
Well I still don′t know, is it in your plan
Or is it something
That mortals could understand

For there's a limit
To these human beings
All these tortured selfish living things That you fall in love with
And then set free and then ask, Whatever have you done to me?

What have you done to me?
