She replied that she did not think about that.

There is always the option of roommates to share costs, but roommates usually have different lifestyles. I grew up frugal. We turned lights off when not in use. We turned heat down when we were not home. I had roommates before who never thought about how to save money and who would eat my food.

How will you make it on your own?
This world is awfully big, girl this time you're all alone
But it's time you started living
It's time you let someone else do some giving

Love is all around, no need to waste it
You can have a town, why don't you take it
You're gonna make it after all
You're gonna make it after all
