A Wonderful, Boring, Normal Life Lyrics by Grace Davies

I, I’m not lonely, I earn my own money
And I don’t like change
But I, oh I’d quite like someone
Like to come home and hold someone
And that’s okay

Mm, I don’t need a fairytale
No glass slipper or a wedding veil
No, I’m not asking for a lot
Forgive the irony and humour me

Oh my, oh my
There’s this movie in my mind
Where you zip up my dress and I tie up your tie
And we sit on the sofa with a bottle of wine
Oh I, oh I
God knows I’ve tried
Just to find someone to leave all their shoes at the foot of the bed
And I’d sleep on the right because you sleep on the left
And then I give you a drawer where you can put all your shit
And you’d say I’m moving quick for someone scared of commitment
So I swing by your mothers for a coffee and cry
And she tells me you’ve been this way since you were a child
Oh my, oh my
All I want is a wonderful, boring, normal life

You, you don’t know me yet
You’re playing hard to get
And I kinda like, and I kinda like it, yeah
You, well you just wait and see
I’m who you’re dying to meet
And you’re gonna like me

Mm, I don’t need a picket fence
Horse and carriage wouldn’t make no sense
Cause I make the diamonds in my life
Forgive the irony and just sing with me

Oh my, oh my
There’s this movie in my mind
Where you rip off my dress and I take off your tie
And we fuck on the sofa all day and all night
Oh I, oh I
God knows I’ve tried
Just to find someone to leave all their shoes at the foot of the bed
And I’d sleep on the right because you sleep on the left
And then I give you a drawer where you can put all your shit
And you’d say I’m moving quick for someone scared of commitment
So I swing by your mothers for a coffee and cry
And she tells me you’ve been this way since you were a child
Oh my, oh my
All I want is a wonderful, boring, normal life
