Sophie B. Hawkins - I Don't Need You lyrics

I'm going away As far as I possibly can And you won't find me You will never ever know How well and good I am 'Cause you don't define me There's people on this earth who can help me Without using me There's people on this earth who can love me Without abusing me I don't need you Like I thought I did I don't need you To watch me fall I don't need you To make me feel like a lonely kid I don't need you, at all We're in the eleventh hour And I seriously thought that we'd break through I sat in your kitchen and cried And underneath my words surged my love for you I reached out my hand for you daddy And you just turned your cool blue mind away It's my birthday and I don't get no well wishes Just a letter that you got some rent you think I ought to pay I don't need you Like I used to do I don't need you To save my soul I don't need you To make me feel sad and blue I don't need you Like I always have I don't need you To hope and long for I don't need you To make me feel Mean and bad I don't need you anymore
