I Just Want My Life Back
Used to get up at 7
Make breakfast for the children
Get them out to the bus by 8
Sit down with a coffee
Throw the hair in a pony
Make sure the kitchen was clean
And the bed was made
Then make plans for dinner
But the laundry waits
Check in with the husband
At least a couple of times a day
That was before I came home
Before walked in and I found
Him with the neighbor
Who I thought was a friend
Now I am down on my knees
Begging, please God, please
I just want my life back again
Had a garden and flowers
Where I spent hours and hours
It was a homecoming sight to see
And I would hang in my cozies
While we watch old rented movies
You said, "You don't have to dress up
For me"
That was before I came home
Before walked in and I found
Him with the neighbor
Who I thought was a friend
Now I am down on my knees
Begging, please God, please
I just want my life back again
I had everything I dreamed
This just can't be happening
How am I supposed to go on
Where did go so wrong?
Everything I built, everything I had
That can't be too much to ask, oh no
How could it change just like that
Please, God, please
Make breakfast for the children
Get them out to the bus by 8
Sit down with a coffee
Throw the hair in a pony
Make sure the kitchen was clean
And the bed was made
Then make plans for dinner
But the laundry waits
Check in with the husband
At least a couple of times a day
That was before I came home
Before walked in and I found
Him with the neighbor
Who I thought was a friend
Now I am down on my knees
Begging, please God, please
I just want my life back again
Had a garden and flowers
Where I spent hours and hours
It was a homecoming sight to see
And I would hang in my cozies
While we watch old rented movies
You said, "You don't have to dress up
For me"
That was before I came home
Before walked in and I found
Him with the neighbor
Who I thought was a friend
Now I am down on my knees
Begging, please God, please
I just want my life back again
I had everything I dreamed
This just can't be happening
How am I supposed to go on
Where did go so wrong?
Everything I built, everything I had
That can't be too much to ask, oh no
How could it change just like that
Please, God, please
