T Bone Burnett - Not In This Life lyrics

[Verse 1] Lately I've been walking all alone Through the wind and through the rain Been walking through the streets 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 [Chorus] Never again, not in this life Will I be taken twice Never again, not on your life Will I make that same mistake I can't make it twice [Verse 2] Lately it's occurred to me Exactly what went wrong I realized I compromised, I sacrificed Far too much for far too long [Chorus] [Verse 3] Starting out from here today Swear I'm gonna change my ways Once mistaken in this life But never twice [Chorus] Never again, not in this life Will I be taken twice Never again, not on your life Will I make that same mistake Never again, not on your life Will I make that same mistake Can't make it twice [Outro] Starting out from here today
