Natalie Merchant - Not In This Life lyrics

Lately I've been walking all alone

Through the wind and through the rain

Been walking through the streets

And finding sweet relief in knowing that it won't be long

Lately it's occurred to me that I've had enough of that

And lately I've been satisfied by simple things

Like breathing in and breathing out

Never again, not in this life

Will I be taken twice

Never again, no, never on your life

Will I make that same mistake

I can't make it twice

Lately it's occurred to me exactly what went wrong

I realized I compromised, I sacrificed far too much

For far too long

Never again, no, not in this life

Will I be taken twice

Never never, never again, no, never on your life

Will I make that same mistake

I can't make it twice

Starting out from here today

Swear I'm gonna change my ways

Once mistaken in this life but never, never, never, never twice

Never again, no, not in this life

Will I be taken twice

Never never, never again, no, never on your life

Will I make that same mistake

Never never, never again, no, never on your life

Will I make that same mistake

I can't make it twice

Starting out from here today

Swear I'm gonna change my ways

Starting out from here today

Swear I'm gonna change my ways
