My Own Best Friend Lyrics by Dan Woodvine

The Group

2021

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
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
