Cherrelle
Never in My Life
[Verse 1:]
All these years
You and I
Living in paradise
From so deep insight
Little voices cannot hide anymore
Dirty shirts and roses lay on the floor

You gave me everything that a grown-up needs
And I was just a little girl
I could live and teach you
Everything that I knew

I lived inside your world
I never even noticed
How much I felt so lonely

[Chorus:]
Never in my life
Have I just let go
Standing up and speaking my mind
Can't believe I'm many things
I never made sure

Never in my life
Did it matter to me
I'm never worth a fight
'Cause I never felt free
Never in my life
Never in my life

[Verse 2:]
Falling in love
You sacrifice
Not so you disappear
Giving in to please someone
You think you need makes love so unclear

There's a stranger crying in you
I'm not blaming you
It's the thing women do

And I want you to ever know
If I never had a say
I would drift away
Little girls do grow old
I know what I have been missing
Just standing there in the shadow

[Repeat Chorus:]

[Bridge:]
In our life together
We would be together
And I'm free

It would be all nice to say I'm satisfied
I have a life to live
But there's only so much you can give

[Repeat Chorus:]
Never in my life
Have I just let go
Standing up and speaking my mind
Can't believe I'm many things
I never made sure

Never in my life
Did it matter to me
I'm never worth a fight
'Cause I never felt free

Never in my life
Did it matter to me
Never in my life
(I'm never worth a fight)
All these years
(Never in my life)
You and I living in paradise
(Never in my life)
Never in my life
