You're the reason for the teardrops on my guitar. The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star. You're the song in the car I keep singing, Don't know why I do.
You walk by me. Can you tell that I can't breathe? And there you go, so perfectly. The kind of flawless I wish I could be.
She better hold you tight, Give you all her love, Look in those beautiful eyes And know she's lucky 'cuz..
You're the reason for the teardrops on my guitar. The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star. You're the song in the car I keep singing, Don't know why I do.
So I drive home alone, As I turn out the light, I'll put your picture down And maybe get some sleep tonight.
'Cause you're the reason for the teardrops on my guitar. The only one that's got enough of me to break my heart. You're the song in the car I keep singing, Don't know why I do.
You're the time taken up, But there's never enough. And you're all that I need to fall into.
You look at me I fake a smile so you won't see...
It was something like a perfect start to This love yesterday but now who are you I thought I knew Your eyes how to know to look right through me It's like you forgot the words you whispered to me They weren't true It's like it wasn't you
Could you tell me what did I do Because it can't be we're already through Did you sell me out for a fool After you held me is that just what you do What did you need from me Tell me
Take time to realise I know That people change their minds But that was something I wished you would say To my face But you run away
Could you tell me what did I do Because it can't be we're already through Did you sell me out for a fool After you held me is that just what you do What did you need from me Tell me
If I had a reason or a simple goodbye Baby even a lie Yeah Yeah
Tell me what did I do Beause baby suddenly we're already through Did you sell me out for a fool After you held me is that just what you do What did you need from me Tell me And tell me
Ooooh Yeah Tell me Tell Me
I took a chance, I took a shot And you might think I'm bulletproof, but i'm not You took a swing, I took it hard And down here from the ground I see who you are
I'm sick and tired of your attitude I'm feeling like I don't know you You tell me that you love me then you cut me down And I need you like a heartbeat But you know you got a mean streak Makes me run for cover when you're around And here's to you and your temper Yes, I remember what you said last night And I know that you see what you're doing to me Tell me why..
You could write a book on, how to ruin someone's perfect day Well I get so confused and frustrated Forget what i'm trying to say, oh
I'm sick and tired of your reasons I got no one to believe in You tell me that you want me, then push me around And I need you like a heartbeat But you know you got a mean streak Makes me run for cover when you're around Here's to you and your temper Yes, I remember what you said last night And I know that you see what you're doing to me Tell me why..
Why..do you have to make me feel small? So you can feel whole inside? Why..do you have to put down my dreams? So you're the only thing on my mind
I'm sick and tired of your attitude I'm feeling like I don't know you You tell me that you want me then cut me down I'm sick and tired of your reasons I've got no one to believe in You ask me for my love then you push me around Here's to you and your temper Yes, I remember what you said last night And I know that you see what you're doing to me Tell me why Why, tell me why... oh
I take a step back, let you go I told you I'm not bulletproof Now you know

I take a step back, I let you go I told you I'm not bulletproof Now you know
I knew what I wanted When I wanted what I just couldn't have You were country loving Really something for three months and a half Everybody said that you were bad news But baby I was betting on you
So I guess I owe my friends ten dollars and a six pack Got myself a big country serving of payback Now I'm gonna have to listen to my momma's “I told you so” You ain't worth all that Ten dollars and a six pack
I said let them say we're crazy You said let's go fishing tonight Midnight you were blazing baby I was easing into your arms Everything changed when you took me to town And caught you staring every other girl down
So I guess I owe my friends ten dollars and a six pack Got myself a big country serving of payback Now I'm gonna have to listen to my momma's “I told you so” You ain't worth all that Ten dollars and a six pack
I can't believe the time you lost me I can't believe what it cost me
‘Cause I owe my friends ten dollars and a six pack Got myself a big old serving of payback I had to listen to my momma's “I told you so” You ain't never been through that ‘Cause you ain't worth all that Ten dollars and a six pack
You ain't worth all that Ten dollars and a six pack
Standing on a street Somewhere I don't want to be In a town that's made of stone Some bad directions must have me here by mistake 'Cause this sure ain't what I call home Let me close my eyes for a second See if I can get out of here and
Let my hair hang down And I can feel the golden sun And watch a pickup truck drive by And I want to tell the world How good it is to be right here But I don't, I just sit under this tree I'm in Tennessee
Standing on a road Leading to a barn With a cat named Eloise Later on we'll all go fishing in the pond But all we'll catch is just a summer breeze Let me close my eyes for a second See if I can stay right here and
Let my hair hang down And I can feel the golden sun And watch a pickup truck drive by And I want to tell the world How good it is to be right here But I don't, I just sit under this tree I'm in Tennessee
When the pond is gone and Eloise floats away I find myself staring at the same old things I need to go back, back where I feel so free Well it looks like I'm going back to Tennessee
Let my hair hang down And I can feel the golden sun And watch a pickup truck drive by And I want to tell the world How good it is to be right here But I don't, I just sit under this tree Just me and Eloise I'm in Tennessee
Like one of those fireflies Oh it looks so good 'til it's in your hand It's like one of those memories Where you can't let go but you just can't stand It's like one of those crazy dreams And the permanent screens in the magazines Saying why'd I love All it does is break your heart
One morning does it all add up Or am I just standing on the edge of crazy You're getting close to giving up In a big old way, knocks you down into the Other side every time Love or lie, live or die I, well I guess that's life
Like one of those people With the beautiful eyes and the perfect face It's like one of those stories Where the hero dies in the very last race Like one of those endless cries And the crazy lies of a hurting child Why did love have to hurt It broke my heart
One morning does it all add up Or am I just standing on the edge of crazy You're getting close to giving up In a big old way, knocks you down into the Darker side every time Love or lie, live or die I, well I guess that's life
I always liked to think That I was always brave enough To try to master any push and shove Well I guess I never qualified love
One morning does it all add up Or am I just standing on the edge of crazy You're getting close to giving up In a big old way, knocks you down into the Other side every time Love or lie, live or die I, well I guess that's life
No sir, I don't wanna be the blame, not anymore It's your turn, so take a seat we're settling the final score And why do we like to hurt so much? I can't decide you have made it harder just to go on And why all the possibilities well, I was wrong
That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa I drowned out all my sense with the sound of this beating And that's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa
I wonder, how am I supposed to feel when you're not here? 'Cause I burned every bridge I ever built when you were here I still try holdin' on to silly things I never learn Oh why, all the possibilities I'm sure you've heard
That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa I drowned out all my sense with the sound of this beating And that's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa
Pain, make you way to me, to me And I'll always be just so inviting If I ever start to think straight This heart will start a riot in me Let's start, start, hey! Why do we like to hurt so much? Oh, why do we like to hurt so much?
That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa Now I can't trust myself with anything but this And that's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa
I said, "I know" He said, "Need some time, need some space To think about all of this" I watched him go He watched me crushed to the floor On my knees, just like that He said, "When can I come back? "
I said, "That's when I wake up in the morning That's when after sun is always storming Laughing when I'm crying That's when I'll be waiting at the front gate That's when never see your face I let you in, baby that's when"
I said, "I know" He said, "I did you wrong, made mistakes Put you through all of this 'Cause I let you go, you let me think That I'll be fine without you Imagine that! So baby I'll come back"
I said, "That's when I wake up in the morning That's when after sun is always storming Laughing when I'm crying That's when I'll be waiting at the front gate That's when never see your face I let you in, baby that's when"
And I said, "All this playing Did you ever think of me? " And he said
I said, "That's when I wake up in the morning That's when after sun is always storming Laughing when I'm crying That's when I'll be waiting at the front gate That's when never see your face I let you in, baby that's when"
I said, "I know" He said, "I need some time, need some space"
Combat, I'm ready for combat I say I don't want that, but what if I do? 'Cause cruelty wins in the movies I've got a hundred thrown-out speeches I almost said to you
Easy they come, easy they go I jump from the train, I ride off alone I never grew up, it's getting so old Help me hold on to you
I've been the archer, I've been the prey Who could ever leave me, darling But who could stay?
Dark side, I search for your dark side But what if I'm alright, right, right, right here? And I cut off my nose just to spite my face Then I hate my reflection for years and years
I wake in the night, I pace like a ghost The room is on fire, invisible smoke And all of my heroes die all alone Help me hold on to you
I've been the archer, I've been the prey Screaming, who could ever leave me, darling But who could stay? (I see right through me, I see right through me)
'Cause they see right through me They see right through me They see right through Can you see right through me? They see right through They see right through me I see right through me I see right through me
All the king's horses, all the king's men Couldn't put me together again 'Cause all of my enemies started out friends Help me hold on to you
I've been the archer, I've been the prey Who could ever leave me, darling But who could stay? (I see right through me, I see right through me) Who could stay? Who could stay? Who could stay? You could stay You could stay
Combat, I'm ready for combat
I'm five years old It's getting cold I've got My big coat on
I hear your laugh And look up smiling at you I run and run
Past the pumpkin patch The tractor rides Look now the sky is gold I hug your legs and fall asleep On the way home
I don't know why all the trees change in the fall I know you're not scared of anything at all don't know if Snow Whites house is near or far away But I know I had the best day With you today
I'm thirteen now And don't know how my friends Could be so mean
I come home crying And you hold me tight And grab the keys
And we drive and drive Until we found a town Far enough away
And we talk and window-shop Until I forgot all their names
I don't know who I'm gonna talk to Now at school But I know I'm laughing on the car ride home with you don't know how long it's gonna take to feel okay But I know I had the best day With you today
I have an excellent father His strength is making me stronger God smiles on my little brother Inside and out He's better than I am
I grew up in a pretty house And I had space to run And I had the best days with you
There is a video I found from back when I was three You set up a paint set in the kitchen And youre talking to me
It's the age of princesses and pirate ships And the seven dwarves Daddy's smart And you're the prettiest lady in the whole wide world
Now I know why all the trees change in the fall I know you were on my side Even when I was wrong And I love you for giving me your eyes Staying back and watching me shine
And I didn't know if you knew So I'm taking this chance to say That I had the best day With you today
I'm five years old, it's getting cold, I've got my big coat on I hear your laugh and look up smiling at you, I run and run Past the pumpkin patch and the tractor rides Look now, the sky is gold I hug your legs and fall asleep on the way home
I don't know why all the trees change in the fall But I know you're not scared of anything at all Don't know if Snow White's house is near or far away But I know I had the best day with you today
I'm thirteen now And don't know how my friends could be so mean I come home crying and you hold me tight and grab the keys And we drive and drive until we found a town far enough away And we talk and window shop 'til I've forgotten all their names
I don't know who I'm going to talk to now at school But I know I'm laughing on the car ride home with you Don't know how long it's going to take to feel okay But I know I had the best day with you today
I have an excellent father, his strength is making me stronger God smiles on my little brother, inside and out He's better than I am I grew up in a pretty house and I had space to run And I had the best days with you
There is a video I found from back when I was three You set up a paint set in the kitchen and you're talking to me It's the age of princesses and pirate ships and the seven dwarfs And Daddy's smart And you're the prettiest lady in the whole wide world
And now I know why all the trees change in the fall I know you were on my side even when I was wrong And I love you for giving me your eyes For staying back and watching me shine And I didn't know if you knew, so I'm taking this chance to say That I had the best day with you today
Is it romantic how all my elegies Eulogize me? I'm not cut out for all these cynical clones These hunters with cell phones
Take me to the Lakes Where all poets went to die I don't belong And, my beloved, neither do you Those Windermere peaks Look like a perfect place to cry I'm setting off But not without my muse
What should be over Burrowed under my skin In heart-stopping waves of hurt I've come too far to watch some name dropping sleaze Tell me what are my words worth
Take me to the Lakes Where all poets went to die I don't belong And, my beloved, neither do you Those Windermere peaks Look like a perfect place to cry I'm setting off But not without my muse
I want auroras and sad prose I want to watch wisteria grow Right over my bare feet Cause I haven't moved in years And I want you right here
A red rose grew up out of ice frozen ground With no one around to tweet it While I bathe in cliffside pools With my calamitous love and insurmountable grief
Take me to the Lakes Where all poets went to die I don't belong And, my beloved, neither do you Those Windermere peaks Look like a perfect place to cry I'm setting off But not without my muse No, not withou you
