All I Wanted

For a long time
I was in the deepest love
And this love
Once had me possessed
With security and sense
That "us" no one could touch
Funny
Life didn't work out
My head is ringing with bells

All I wanted was a life
A bride to make my wife

In this shade
That once was you and me
I don't know how
You broke me down
Back to "just a boy"
You were always the one with all the luck
You came around
You're breaking me down

All I wanted was a life with you
My bride to make my wife

I'd always thought
You'd come along
Sometimes I wish
For a mistake
The longer that you'd wait
The more selfish you would get
I just want you
To call me 'a good dad'

And once again I'm shown
All these simple things
Are far too complicated
For my life

I'm just left now
With my freedom
And a selfish shell of life
