What “I Bought Myself This Little Piece” is about

A woman sings about achieving her dream of owning a small apartment with an ocean view. She saved for years, starting from a humble job, and now enjoys her independence and the peace of her own space. She finds contentment in her solitude, seeing loneliness as a temporary feeling.

I Bought Myself This Little Piece lyrics

[Verse 1] Ocean view from a tiny apartment Saved up dimes since my first department Store job back in the summer of nine Now the salt air is finally mine [Chorus] I bought myself this little piece of sky No man no parent no alibi Mine alone with the seagulls cry This is what they call living high [Verse 2] Cooking dinner just for one tonight Candles lit and the music light Loneliness is just a passing breeze When you've made yourself feel at ease

Lines explained

“I bought myself this little piece of sky”

The 'piece of sky' refers metaphorically to her apartment with the ocean view, symbolizing her personal freedom and achievement.

“No man no parent no alibi”

This line emphasizes her independence; she achieved this goal entirely on her own terms, without needing anyone else's help or justification.

“This is what they call living high”

'Living high' here means living well and contentedly, not necessarily in luxury, but in a state of personal fulfillment and peace.
