Tanita Tikaram - For All These Years

I got a scent on you, I got something here to show It's somebody's slice of life I had it tailor made I had it soaken, shaken and shown around the world And all of these things you tell me I can't quite believe You are still there and I'm still trying to be somebody Always on the upkeep, always tryna reach the rest of us We don't have anything to say, nothing to give Well life, it blows away I have another chance, I may have two lives But my both my lives will be brief lives And then, you all will wonder why I was only 16 years old You were only 17 Life isn't so complicated But then life isn't 'sposed to be For all these years For all these years Could somebody tell them To hurry on, hurry on down? Could somebody tell them To hurry on, hurry on? Every censor, everybody loses their way I have a wealth of material I have a well of people to share with you Every lover Well they all tell lies I have his wife in the background But I have more than this, I have more than this And if Mr Chaste, he has a past Give it to me I was only 16 years old You were nearly 17 Life isn't so complicated But then life isn't 'sposed to be For all these years For all these years
