Something I Thought Id Never Do Lyrics by Maureen McGovern

Something I Thought Id Never Do Lyrics

    Too many times,
    I've sat across a table
    Lending a sympathetic ear
    Knowing exactly what I'll hear
    Concealing my impatience
    With a friend who falls apart
    Who's let some guy walk off with her heart
    He's gone, she can't forget, it's nothing new
    Depending upon your point of view

    So many times,
    Women have a weakness
    For building their lives around a man
    Something I never understand
    But you and I were different
    We were free to come and go
    Until you left for good, how could I know?
    The tears, the wasted time, the longing for you
    Something I thought I'd never do

    My days are filled with the worst clichés
    I watch the phone and dare it not to ring
    I'magining your call and what I'd say
    Eating alone is worse than anything
    Except...are those footsteps in the hall?

    The friends I see
    Tell me time is healing
    Everyone tries to be so kind
    Kindness could make me lose my mind
    I sit up late at night
    And watch old movies on TV
    Though I could never tell you what I see
    Sometimes, sometimes, I cry the whole night through
    Something, it's something
    Something I thought I'd never do
