Nellie Mckay - Our Life lyrics

He bet me He told me he'd never forget me Regret me is something he never could do He laughed, then he looked like a kid on vacation Could hardly contain his elation His world had aligned with his view He told me he felt that he'd gave up on our life It took a minute to realise he wasn't referring to we Though blood smiles may glisten like poison Though kind eyes can moisten with treason with the whole time Though our life was never to be Woah, woah, woah, our life Our life meant something to me The mountains, and rivers, and springtime, and summer November brings cold, winter nights by the fire The rainfall outside of that movie, a phone call They always glue to me at [?] A kitten, a pumpkin, a pie He told me he felt that he'd gave up on our life It took me a minute to realise For I was to blinded to see through the blossoms Who shelter the sun from the pavement The sadness, which end of the day meant: if you love someone, set them free Woah, woah, woah, our life Our life meant something to me He told me he felt that he'd gave up on our life It may take a lifetime to realise he wasn't referring to we Though living a bachelor existence is lovely And living means most to the lonely Though our life was never to be Woah, woah, woah, our life Our life meant something to me Woah, woah, woah, our life Our life meant something to me Woah, woah, woah, our life Our life meant something to me
