lyrics

Well go on, put your clothes on
And walk right out the door
Don’t want to see you when the sun breaks through the blind
If you’re thinking I’ll come running
And beg you back for more
Then baby you’ve been drinking more than I
We can talk all day and talk all night again

But nothing I say could ever make it right again
‘Cause my heart died a thousand years before I met you, baby
There’s nothing here but a long, cold, lonely road
And a hole in my jeans and some busted dreams
And gum on the soles of my shoes
But I’ll tell you I love you if you’ll
Help me say goodbye to these blues

Well there’s three more hours till morning
And a bottle on the floor
With enough inside to keep us high till dawn
But if you’re thinking that I’m weakening
And believing that I’m yours
I’m going to turn right round and just keep moving on
I can’t be what you want and I won’t be what you need again
And I don’t understand why you got to stand there and bleed again

‘Cause my heart died a thousand years before I met you, baby
There’s nothing here but a long, cold, lonely road
And a hole in my jeans and some busted dreams
And gum on the soles of my shoes
But I’ll tell you I love you if you’ll
Help me say goodbye to these blues
I’ll tell you I love you if you’ll
Help me say goodbye to these blues
