Intro

    

Verse

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 

Chorus

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

Verse

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 

Chorus

Like a sick domestic abuser
Looking for a fight  
And all I wanted was the simple things
A simple kind of life  

Bridge

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

Verse

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  

Chorus

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
