I Never

I'm only a woman
Of flesh and bone
And I weigh too much
We all do
I thought I might die alone

But I
Had never, never, never, never, never
Never, never, never, never
Never, had never met you

So baby be good to me
I got nothing to give you, you see
Except everything, everything, everything, everything
All the good and the bad

'Cause I've been bad
I've lied, cheated, and stolen
And been ungrateful for what I've have
And I'm afraid habits rule my waking life
I'm scared and I'm running in my sleep for you
But all of the oceans and rivers and showers
I'll wash it all away and make me new for you

'Cause I
Had never, never, never, never, never
Never, never, never, never
Never, never, never, never
Never, had never met you

So let's take a loan and I'll put it down on a house
In a place we've never lived
In a place that exists in the pages of scripts
And the songs that they sing
And all of the beautiful things
That make you weep
But don't have to make you weep

'Cause I
Never, never, never, never, never
Never, never, never, never
Never, never, never, never
Never, never, never, never
Never, never, never, never
Never, never, never, never
Never, never have loved somebody
The way that I loved you
