Dan Woodvine - My Own Best Friend lyrics

I was always the one no-one played with Always the one left alone Was always so disengaging Lived in a world of my own I was never like the other girls Never joined in with their games I never fitted into their world They always called me silly names I learnt to be my own best friend On myself I learnt to depend Days of playing would never end Ever hour God sent I would spend That kept me happy I learnt to live my fantasy Lived in a world where I was free To be what I wanted To do what I wanted I never lived in the real world Was different from other boys and girls The way that I was Always came across odd I never fitted in at school Was always the odd one out Seemed you have to be cool To get people round you I learnt to be my own best friend On myself I learnt to depend Days of playing would never end Ever hour God sent I would spend That kept me happy I learnt to live my fantasy Lived in a world where I was free To be what I wanted To do what I wanted My parents were my only playmates And only outside the school gates
