Not For You

Hazel O'Connor


Don't promise you'll never leave me 
Cos, that would be a lie 
We don't perceive the change of time 
Tomorrow's the throw of the dice 
Believe me I have tried for you 
As much as I could 
But I wouldn't (couldn't) I wouldn't (I wouldn't) 
I couldn't (couldn't) I wouldn't (I wouldn't) 
I couldn't give up my freedom 
Not for you, or for anyone else (for you) 
I guess I've lived alone too long 
To make this compromise 
I know that this is hurting you 
I've seen that look in your eyes 
Oh, write me off as just another one 
Who couldn't live up to your ideals 
Cos I couldn't (couldn't) I wouldn't (I wouldn't) 
I couldn't (couldn't) I wouldn't (I wouldn't) 
I couldn't give up my freedom 
Not for you, or for anyone else (for you) 
So take a walk - (talk talk talk) 
So take a walk - (talk talk talk) 
So take a walk - (talk talk talk) 
To take a walk - blah blah blah blah blah blah blah 
Don't promise you'll never leave me 
Cos, that would be a gross lie 
We don't perceive the change of time 
Tomorrow's the throw of the dice 
Oh write me off as just another one 
Who couldn't live up to your ideals 
Cos I wouldn't (couldn't) I wouldn't (I wouldn't) 
I couldn't (couldn't) I wouldn't (I wouldn't) 
I couldn't give up my freedom 
Not for you (not for you) 
I couldn't give up my freedom 
Not for you, (or for anyone else) 
I couldn't give up my freedom 
Not for you
