Life Is For the Living I'M My Own Sun

Life is for the living (I'm my own sun) By Michelle Morris 23/01/2023 I will always hold my head high You won't be the reason that I'm crying All those tears are mine to bear You don't deserve my intimate fears 'Cos life is for the living And we only get one shot Love is for the giving It's this power that we've got No one forced your hand No one showed a gun You're just disappointed That I'm my own sun Everything I gave to you You took for granted like a fool Everything I was in your life Seemed to make you take flight And I am chasing freedom, now I am better off on my own I won't be held back ever Because there's no one home 'Cos life is for the living And we only get one shot Love is for the giving It's this power that we've got No one forced your hand No one showed a gun You're just disappointed That I'm my own sun Oh-oh-oh... Yeah... Yeah... 'Cos life is for the living And we only get one shot Love is for the giving It's this power that we've got No one forced your hand No one showed a gun You're just disappointed That I'm my own sun Oh-oh-oh... You're just disappointed That I'm my own sun! © Michelle Morris, 2023
