For a long time
I was in love
Not only in love
I was obsessed
With a friendship
That no one else
Could touch
It didn't work out
I'm covered
In shells
And all I wanted
Was the
Simple things
A simple
Kind of life
And all I needed
Was a simple man
So I could be
A wife
I'm so ashamed
I've been
So mean
I don't know
How it got
To this point
Ooh,
I always was
The one with
All the love
You came along
I'm hunting
You down
Oh...
Like a sick
Domestic abuser
Looking for
A fight, oh!
And all I wanted
Was the
Simple things
A simple
Kind of life
Oh...
If we met tomorrow
For the very
First time
Would it start
All over again?
Would I try to
Make you mine?
I always thought
I'd be a mom
Sometimes I wish
For a mistake
The longer
That I wait
The more selfish
That I get
You seem like
You'd be
A good dad
Now all those
Simple things
Are simply
Too complicated
For my life
How'd I get
So faithful
To my freedom?
A selfish
Kind of life
When all I ever
Wanted was the
Simple things
A simple kind
Of life
Simple kind
Of life
A simple kind
Of life
A simple kind
Of life
A simple kind
Of life
Simple kind
Of life
Simple kind
Of life
A simple kind
Of life
Simple kind
Of life
A simple kind
Of life
A simple kind
Of life...
