Richard Thompson - If I Could Live My Life Again

Copied!

Well, you know, i can't do nothing for you
And you know, i say my piece and then
I pound the pavement always wishing
Whether i would live my life again

Will i raise some cain and sink some whiskey
Or ramble like i'm anything
There's arms i've held and hearts i've broken
Oh if i could live my life again

Oh i hate the four walls of this prison
Those cowards let me take the blame
Next time i'll run with better company
Oh if i could live my life again

And you know, true love slipped through my fingers
Somehow, i never could explain
Next time, i'll say just what i'm thinking
Oh if i could live my life again

I wish my sins could be forgiven
And that's why i sing this sad refrain
Just one more chance is all i'm asking
Oh if i could live my life again
Oh if i could live my life again
