Winter is approaching There's snow upon the ground It's good of you to visit me I'm glad you came around I don't know how you found me I didn't let you know I only moved to this address About a week ago I guess you think I ran out But that's not true Other people settle down I never do I always have to move on Just have to go I've often wondered: why that is? I'd like to say, but I just don't know I guess you've always wanted Life on your own I guess you've always wanted Life on your own Up here the summer's shorter And winter's very cold I'm looking forward to the peace My lonely life will hold I'm really glad you came here Thank you for the talk It's funny how my problem stopped When we went for a walk Standing here together Means so much I won't forget your confidence I won't forget your touch You know I'll come to see you Passing through We'll always be a world apart I'll travel on, but I will be true I guess you've always wanted Life on your own I guess you've always wanted Life on your own I guess you've always wanted Life on your own I guess you've always wanted Life on your own ♪ I guess you've always wanted Life on your own I guess you've always wanted Life on your own I guess you've always wanted Life on your own I guess you've always wanted Life on your own
