Simple Kind of Life lyrics

For a long time I was in loveNot only in love, I was obsessedWith a friendship that no one else could touchIt didn’t work out, I’m covered in shells

And all I wanted was the simple thingsA simple kind of lifeAnd all I needed was a simple manSo I could be the wife

I’m so ashamed, I’ve been so meanI don’t know how it got to this pointOh, I always was the one with all loveYou came along, I’m hunting you down

Like a sick domestic abuserLooking for a fightAnd all I wanted was the simple thingsA simple kind of life

If we met tomorrow for the very first timeWould it start all over again? Would I try to make you mine?

I always thought, I’d be a momSometimes I wish for a mistakeThe longer that I wait, the more selfish that I getYou seem like you’d be a good dad

Now all those simple things are simply too complicated for my lifeIn all I get so faithful to my freedomA selfish kind of lifeWhen all I ever wanted was the simple thingsA simple kind of life

A simple kind of lifeA simple kind of lifeA simple kind of life
