Lyrics - Simple Together by Alanis Morissette

You’ve been my golden best friend
Now with post-demise at hand
Can’t go to you for consolation
Cause we’re off limits during this transition
This grief overwhelms me
It burns in my stomach
And
I can’t stop bumping into things
I thought we’d be simple together
I thought we’d be happy together
Thought we’d be limitless together
I thought we’d be precious together
But
I was sadly mistaken
You’ve been my soulmate and mentor
I remembered you the moment
I met you
With you
I knew god’s face was handsome
With you
I suffered an expansion
This loss is numbing me
It pierces my chest
And
I can’t stop dropping everything
I thought we’d be sexy together
Thought we’d be evolving together
I thought we’d have children together
I thought we’d be family together
But
I was sadly mistaken
If
I had a bill for all the philosophies
I shared
If
I had a penny for all the possibilities
I presented
If
I had a dime for every hand thrown up in the air
My wealth would render this no less severe
I thought we’d be genius together
I thought we’d be healing together
I thought we’d be growing together
Thought we’d be adventurous together
But
I was sadly mistaken
Thought we’d be exploring together
Thought we’d be inspired together
I thought we’d be flying together
Thought we’d be on fire together
But
I was sadly mistaken(vocalizes)
