Livin' For Me
Music and Lyrics by Garland Jeffreys
From the album American Boy & Girl (1979).
I've been caught in a battle
Between love and hate
And all my friends
They tell me
It's just my emotional state
But I know there's a difference
Between love and war
'Cause I am a first class veteran
And I been here once or twice before
I'm not livin' for you baby
I'm livin' for me
The wound it cuts so deep
And the hurt takes long to heal
And poets sing sweet the rhapsody
Everybody can feel
And lovers they will make-up
They will break-up they will make-up again
Some become such enemies
And some become such very best friends
I'm not livin' for you baby
I'm livin' for me
My love I got so much emotion
I'll bet you know what it's like
My tears could fill up the ocean
Gonna' cut some loose like Wilhelm Reich
I'm not livin' for you
I'm livin' for me
