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
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?
A selfish kind of life
When all I ever wanted was the simple things
A simple kind of life
