Maybe I was born too late
_____
Or in a land with different light
_____
I always feel a bit lost
_____
Though the mirror shows my face
_____
I know the bars, cathedrals
_____
From Amsterdam down to Maastricht
_____
Still I'll lose my way every day
_____
That keeps things in balance
_____
Just let me go my own way
_____
I've always done it like that
_____
I won't forget my friends
_____
Whoever I love stays dear to me
_____
And where they live, I had to know
_____
But I lost their last letter
_____
I'll surely meet them again
_____
Maybe today, maybe in a year
_____
I'll kiss them and say hi
_____
It'll all work out by itself
_____
Just let me go my own way
_____
I've always done it like that
_____
Luckily I'm not anchored
_____
Sometimes I live here, sometimes I live there
_____
I haven't f*cked up my life
_____
I've got no possessions and no objections
_____
I love water and breath
_____
I love shabby and pricey
_____
There's not a penny I've saved
_____
I just live from hour to hour
_____
Just let me go my own way
_____
I've always done it like that
_____
I'll die someday too
_____
There's really no getting around that
_____
I'll just let my songs wander now
_____
And you can figure out the rest
_____
For now I'm still your singer
_____
Your black sheep, your loyal fan
_____
I'll stay a long time and preferably longer
_____
But let me stay who I am
_____
Just let me go my own way
_____
I've always done it like that
_____
Just let me go my own way
_____
I've always done it like that
_____
I've always done it like that
_____
I've always done it like that
