Live Alone and Like It - Cyrille Aimée

Live alone and like it

Free as the birds in the trees

High above the briars

Live alone and like it

Doing whatever you please

When your heart desires

Free to hang around or fly at any old time

No equivocation

Most often no quarantees

That can be your motto

Free of obligation

Only the murmuring breeze

As an obbligato

Live alone and like it

Why is that such a crime?

Free to call the tune

Free to say if I’m gonna work or play

You can have the moon

But you don’t have to have it night and day

Anyway,

What I like is gliding

Where the wind takes me to

Flying high and hiding up in a tree

Live alone and like it

Di-didididi-dum

That’s the answer for me

Free to call the tune

Free to say if I’m gonna work or play

You can have the moon

But you don’t have to have it night and day

Anyway,

On your own with only

You to concern yourself

Doesn’t mean you’re lonely

Just that you’re free

Live alone and like it

Di-didididi-dum

Mmm-mm mm-mmm

Didili-de-didi-ey

Mmm-mm mm-mmm

Pa-dididi-di-dididi-di didi

Mmm-mm mm-mmm

That’s the answer for me
