Life Being What It Is lyrics

You put a note in my pocket said, "Be good to yourself "
And that was all

Life being what it is, we all dream of revenge
Open your eyes for a second just to roll them at me
I stared straight into the sun, something to concentrate on
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/k/kaki_king/life_being_what_it_is.html ]
And if you turn it on you'd find I've written you a thousand times
You would do anything, you'd give up everything for God knows why

I just can't stay till you're gone, I won't wish you well
I won't see you off, I won't try to call if I see you in my mind
I'll say to you it's not your fault

You said, "I'll see you in September", but that's not long enough for me
You put a note in my pocket so it would take care of me but that was all
