 x1
 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 the wife
  I'm so ashamed, I've been so mean
  I don't know how it got to this point
  I always was the one with all the love
  You came along, I'm hunting you down
  Like a sick domestic abuser looking for a fight
  And all I wanted was the simple things
  A simple kind of life
   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?
  When all I ever wanted was the simple things
  A simple kind of life
