The Worst Thing Natalie Merchant

[Verse 1]
So you're in love, it's so good for you
Live it up, girl, 'cause it never lasts too long

[Verse 2]
It's heaven for now, but not for long
It's gonna hurt you, it's gonna make you feel so bad

[Chorus]
Once I could love, I could trust, I could not doubt
But that was the worst thing that I could do
It was just about the worst thing that I could do

[Verse 3]
Maybe not now, but it won't take long
Before it's gonna hurt you and truly do you some harm

[Chorus]
Once I was open, could hope, I had no doubt
But that was the worst thing that I could do
It was just about the worst thing that I could do
It was just about the worst thing that I could do

[Chorus]
Once I came close to that most elusive fire
Burning with hopeless love and desire
But it was just about the worst thing that I could do
It was just about the worst thing that I could do
It was just about the worst thing that I could do
It was just about the worst thing that I could do
