Never had a point of view
'Cause my mind was always someone else's mind

I never had to tell a lie
Cause I left the choices up to them
Don't know why but I did

Oh I want life
Life wants me
To breath in it's love

Take me I'm yours
Now I'm comin' up for air
I'm gonna live my time
For the rest of my life
Then I'll be comin' back for more

I never had to call the tune
'Cause I always drifted with the tide of the moon
(Ah la luna, my love, my love, my love)

I would go out every night
Looking for someone to treat me right
Not a chance (chance) not a hope (hope)
In this world (world)

Oh I want life
Life wants me
To breath in it's love

Take me I'm yours
Now I'm comin' up for air
I'm gonna live my time
For the rest of my life
Then I'll be comin' back for more

Take me I'm yours
Now I'm comin' up for air
I'm gonna live my time
For the rest of my life
Then I'll be comin' back for more

(More)

Take me I'm yours
Now I'm comin' up for air
I'm gonna live my time
For the rest of my life
Then I'll be coming back for more (more)
(oh yeah) (More)

    General CommentStart living your life for you, and stop living it for others is what I get from this song.

    General CommentI know this song was written before Andy says he knew he was HIV-positive, but still I can't help but think about it when I hear this song. Sort of the stage right after acceptance and overcoming the fear of death; wanting to live fully until the very end.

    At least that's the feeling I get from the song. After a long, hard time I found out, last year, that i was BPD and knowing that lead to a lot of feelings. Frustration, among other things.But after a while, acceptance and also, in a way, a will to embrace it. And somehow listening to this song gives me hope that I can do anything. Kind of. It's very liberating.

    My InterpretationFor me, this song is about no longer apologizing for being who you are. It reminds me of coming out to my family and friends many hears ago. Life is a lot easier when one doesn't have to hide any longer it's about self acceptance for me.
    No regrets, no apologies.

    My InterpretationPeople here are so correct, this song is about finally deciding to be true to who you are, and no longer repressing yourself for other people's approval. Please never do that, it will do no good for anyone and just hurt you.
