What's the sense in sharing this one and only life

Ending up, just another lost and lonely wife

You count up the years, and they will be filled with tears

Love only breaks up, to start over again

You'll get the babies, but you won't have your man

Who wants to live in, in trouble and strife?

My mind must be free, to learn all I can about me, mhmm

I'm gonna love me for the rest of my days

Encourage the babies every time they say

Self resevation is what's really going  on  today

C/B                           C/Bb                         
When I just can't break away, when I just can't break away?
