Courtney Love
For Once in Your Life (Demo)
[Verse 1]
You just don’t love me and I just don’t care
Oh, I never said I would play fair
Something so perfect and so rare
There is no cure, there’s not a prayer, a prayer
So what I can do?
[Verse 2]
I am the only perfect choice
You’ve met your match, I’ve lost my voice
And when you’re gone, it gets so cold
I swear I’m too young to be this old, this old
So what I can do?
[Chorus]
Oh, I’ve been bittered
You know what’s true and you know what’s right
Oh, I’m forever
Oh, just do the right thing for once in your life, in your life
[Verse 3]
I've got a right to be this wrong
What started with a line to dare
All of me aches and the best of me's gone
And all that I have is out and laid bare, and laid bare
So what can I do?
So what can I do?
[Chorus]
Oh, I’ve been beggered
You know what’s pure and you know what’s right
But I’m forever
Just do the right thing for once in your life, in your life
So what can I do?
[Bridge]
It's all I am (la, la, la, la, la)
It's all I am (la, la, la, la, la)
It's all I am (la, la, la, la, la)
It's all I am (la, la, la, la, la)
[Chorus]
Oh, I’ve been cheated
Covered in diamonds and covered in filth
But I’m still breathing
Oh, please stick around and I'll build you world, build you a world
Oh, I've been strangled
Passed beyond sags, I'll cut down to size
My life just dangles
Oh, there's no context for once in my life, in my life
So what can I do?
So what can I do?
[Outro]
I know that I’m, I'm just a lost girl
But please stick around and I’ll build you a world
I’ll build you a world
I’ll build you a world
