I Belong to Me

When the rain has stopped

And everyone's out to play

I am a face in the window

Passing through another day

I've heard the cool, cool music

Of Mingus and Miles in the afternoon

I've felt the cold blue halo

Forgotten by an angel in my room

In my room but

I belong to me

Of course I love you but

My life is mine to be

What I want to

And when the train has stopped

And everyone is homeward bound

I am the boy in the window

Passing through another town

I've heard the cruel, cruel voices

Of men saying nothing in the afternoon

I've felt the ice blue halo

Lost by the devil in my room

In my room but

I belong to me

Of course I love you but

My life is mine to be

What I want to

When the show is over

And everyone is going home

I am a child in the window

Waiting for another go

I've heard the cool, cool music

Of my heart beating softly in the afternoon

I've felt the cold blue halo

Traded by an angel in my room

She was in my room but

I belong to me

Of course I love you but

My life is mine to be

What I want to

Well, I belong to me

Of course I love you but

My life is mine to be

What I want to

I belong to me

I belong to me

I belong to me

I belong to me

I belong to me
