Louise Mosrie: Music

Never Gonna Be the One

(Louise Mosrie)
You’ve got me hoping the telephone will ring
You’ve got me coping with the shadows of my desires.
You’ve got me hating myself for what I can’t be
And everything I am.

You’ve got me wishing your wife will find out.
You’ve got me thinking, thinking about leaving town
Why did I have to fall for someone who’s not around?
Even when he’s here.

When I’m the other woman, I always feel wanted.
Buy a new lipstick and think about you all day
When I’m the other woman, I’m always ever conscious
Nothing is forever anyway.

I’m never gonna be the one
Never gonna be.
Never gonna be the one
I’m never gonna be the one.
Never gonna be.
Never gonna be the one.

You’ve got me wanting to stop the hands of time
I’m just saying, you could stay for a little while.
Why is life unfair? Don’t I deserve to love
Whomever I want?

I feel like sinking your happy family.
I feel like drinking a little too heavily
Where has my pride gone? I used to think I was strong.

When I’m the other woman, I always feel lonely.
But pour me a scotch dear, I think about you all day.
When I’m the other woman, I’m always ever conscious
Nothing is forever anyway.

Chorus

Alone is the price I pay for freedom and control
No one can tell me what to do.
I live day by day, by the laws of my body, not my soul.

Chorus
