Alone

You hear this all the time; "Someday you will find your perfect special someone And if you haven't found them, then you must feel so sad" Well maybe if we didn't have this message pushed by all those songs, movies, books and TV shows We might realize that being single doesn't have to be so bad Now if you have someone who makes you happy I'm not trying to take that away from you But if you're like me and you're all by yourself Then I'm gonna tell you what I know to be true It's ok to be alone It's alright to do things on your own Sometimes some time by yourself is exactly what you need 'Cause don't you know That alone is a perfectly normal thing to be All this time, we've been taught to think that companionship is needed That we were meant to go through life with someone else But let's just all take a second to think about all that we can do And how capable we are of living a good life by ourselves Don't feel ashamed if you need to be with someone There's no reason to feel bad, there's nothing to forgive I just want that need to have come from yourself And not from the world trying to tell you how to live It's ok to be alone It's alright to do things on your own Sometimes some time by yourself is exactly what you need 'Cause don't you know That alone is a totally ok thing to be It's ok to be alone It's alright to do things on your own Sometimes some time by yourself is exactly what you need 'Cause don't you know That alone is a completely normal thing to be I'm ok, and I'm alone I'm alright; I'm living life on my own Sometimes some time by myself is exactly what I need And believe me, I'm doing alright Yeah really, I'm doing alright Because I know That alone is a perfectly ok thing A totally natural normal thing to be
