Gwen Stefani - Simple Kind of Life Lyrics

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 a simple thing 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 But you came along, I'm hunting you down

Like a sick domestic abuser lookin' for a fight 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 the 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
