This is Your Life Lyrics

You had it all arranged
How our life would be
Problem is, you never asked
Or consulted me

We'd share your life
Your loving man at home
Forgetting that I have a life
That I can call my own

You wrote the role
You'd have me play
But I'd have to be an actor
For it to work out that way

This is your life, not mine
This is your life, not mine
This is your life, not mine
And I'm getting out in time

You've had this house
And lived in it for years
Now you want me to give up my place
And move in with you here

But it has your stamp
A strong identity
No matter how much I love you
It'll never belong to me

The life you've planned
I could never take
And the sacrifice you ask is one
That you would never make.

This is your life, not mine
This is your life, not mine
This is your life, not mine
And I'm getting out in time

This is your life, not mine
This is your life, not mine
This is your life, not mine
And I'm getting out in time
