Things I Thought I'd Never Do - Jack Savoretti

Stayin' too long at the honky tonk Spendin' too much just to tie one on Little less right and a lot more wrong Sounds like somethin' I'd do Callin' in sick when the fish are bitin' Takin' those curves with the gravel flyin' Keepin' one eye on the next horizon Sounds like somethin' I'd do I never had a reason, girl To go 'round lookin' for a fire to walk through It ain't like me to want somebody Rearrangin' all my want to's I ain't the kind to settle down Or let myself get wrapped around Somebody's finger, but if I had you Baby, sounds like somethin' I'd do Cleanin' my truck, get it pushin' eighty Pickin' you up and later, maybe Gettin' one kiss and goin' half-crazy Sounds like somethin' I'd do I never had a reason, girl To go 'round lookin' for a fire to walk through It ain't like me to want somebody Rearrangin' all my want to's I ain't the kind to settle down Or let myself get wrapped around Somebody's finger, but if I had you Baby, sounds like somethin' I'd do Yeah I ain't the kind to settle down Or let my heart get wrapped around Somebody's finger, but if I had you Baby, sounds like somethin' Baby, oh, it sounds like somethin' Baby, sounds like somethin' I'd do

When you were younger Blue-eyed boy wonder Never used to ponder On what life may hide Now you're older The nights are so much colder Never even told her How you feel inside You were so proud With your head up in the white clouds She'd call you so loud But you'd never know Now that you're wiser You'd never compromise her Every day you'd realise her But this bird has flown And you've blown out all your candles one by one And you curse yourself for things you've never done She would wait for you Idolize, adore you Love and reassure you You couldn't let it be You let it linger Slip on through your fingers So that September She moved across the sea How your face dropped And how your heart stopped Sitting at the bus stop When they told you that she'd gone So you run to the harbour Need to tell her that you love her As the boat disappears You never felt so alone 'Cause you've blown out all your candles one by one And you curse yourself for things you never done Where were you when her hour of need had come? Now you curse yourself for things you've never done Now your grandson, blonde-haired, blue-eyed, handsome Calls you up from London and sits and asks you, "Why?" So you answer, "Don't be scared of failure The only failure is never to try" Never to try Never to try Never to try And where were you when her hour of need had come? Now you curse yourself for things you've never done

You promised a lifetime, but left in a moment I wonder if you even think about me Throw me a lifeline because I'm barely floating Stranded and broken You know you got me lost in the dark Is it too late? Is it too late for us? You know you got me lost in my heart Is it too late? Is it too late for us? Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo Oh I was wasting my time hoping you'd call But damn you're so cold Oh why'd you make me feel safe Just to walk away Just to let me go Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo You look like an angel Thought I was in heaven But I'm just falling without you with me I thought I was able to learn from my lessons Was trying my best but You know you got me lost in the dark Is it too late? Is it too late for us? You know you got me lost in my heart Is it too late? Is it too late for us? Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo Oh I was wasting my time hoping you'd call But damn you're so cold Oh why'd you make me feel safe Just to walk away? Just to let me go? Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo Ohhhh I'll never love again, I'll never love again Ohhhh I'll never love again, I'll never love again Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo Oh I was wasting my time hoping you'd call But damn you're so cold Oh why'd you make me feel safe Just to walk away? Just to let me go? Oh why'd you get me so high To leave me so low To leave me solo
