Intro

Verse 1

I can come and go as I want to

If I'm late, I don't have to call you

It sure feels good to be my own boss

I got back control of the TV

And my life now I can just be me

 Oh, losin' you ain't a total loss

Chorus

Last night I sifted through the ashes

And when the smoke cleared I was stronger than I thought

 And I'll love another day just slightly damaged

 Oh, losin' you ain't a total loss

Verse 2

More hot water runnin' outta my faucet

A lot more room in the closet

It hurt for a while, but I'm better off, oh yeah

I don't feel trapped, I don't feel smothered

I don't have to deal with your meddlin mother

Losin you ain't a total loss

Chorus

Last night I sifted through the ashes

And when the smoke cleared I was stronger than I thought

 And I'll love another day just slightly damaged

 Oh, losin' you ain't a total loss

Chorus

Last night I sifted through the ashes

And when the smoke cleared I was stronger than I thought

 And I'll love another day just slightly damaged

 Oh, losin' you ain't a total loss

Oh, losin' you ain't a total loss
