Live Just For Me

It's quiet today My mind is not screaming. I've not given up I've only stopped dreaming. For too many years And too many days I lived just for you I'm changing my ways. I'm going to laugh. And I'm going to sing. I'll live just for me My heart's taken wing. The sky is so blue, no clouds over me. I feel so happy And I feel so free. I've love in my heart For someone who's true. You had your chance I had that for you. But you weren't ready You wanted to run. Now I realize You're just not the one. So now that I'm wiser And happy again I'm free to be me I'm glad that you ran.
