1.
Two baby boys and a girl to come home to And a family that loves you But your mama does too Yeah your mama loves you I try so hard to hold you so closely But I'm so far away from you But your mama knows you And I know it's true That maybe we're through But I love you
2.
What in life would you want from me, could I be everything And I can't believe that no one really wants to be with me Who told you that we would make it Who told you that we were wasting time Who told you we were getting better and who told you we were gonna try Long goodbyes never heal your heart and if you would start, start with me I can't believe that no one really wants to be with me Maybe someday I'll be alright When the storm's in front of you just look behind Look behind at the bad times Remind yourself that you'll be alright When the storms in front of you then you won't mind
3.
Is it time to work it out It's been too long Is it time to scream and shout It's been too long In the belly of the beast it'll catch you on your knees It'll catch me sleeping It'll catch me sleeping One at a time or I'll get lost I ain't sober I don't know what love costs but it's fuckin' me over Now that I'm older I lie in bed 'cus I'm so high I'll call you mama Tell you that I'm doing bad and I can't see tomorrow Can't see tomorrow It'll catch us sleeping
4.
One day in the east, one day in the west We wanted to hear you but our hearts weren't at their best And this simple day in life is as simple as it gets With nothing in my pockets but my heart's out placing bets Shame on everyone for giving when it's hard I won't give up till I'm gone And it's hard to make a living when you're feeling all alone I won't give up till I get home Times are getting harder whenever you leave One day I will make it then that day you'll believe And if boots were making walking then here, have mine You can stop your talking girl 'cuz you're just wasting my time
5.
Clean room, smoking plays against And I'm tired as hell Developed again, A heart made of gold But you made it so hard to tell What's your call Can it heal all these children I am not alone And do you need my love darling Are those your eyes calling Down in the basement I want to hide away 'cus I like you too much But it's too late
6.
What did you think you needed What did you think you wanted with me Can't stand to follow you around Try this, for once I meant to fall down Would you fall down with me And when the rain won't fall, You know I'll be there And if you're somewhere far, You know I'll be there It's after midnight, I'll take the next right We'll take the long ride home Some say I'll always be with you Some say you'll always be with me too Alright I'll make my bed again Tonight love is letting me live Can't you see it's not for us to believe
7.
Come and watch the clouds go by Follow the day into the night Waiting for the streetlights to flicker Illuminating green and white Nothing is as bright as you tonight It's a shivery sweet feeling just pretend it's not fleeting fancy The sky is dancing The leaves are falling It's our time to shine and smile We can just stay for a while But you know we're making it mile after mile But we're too afraid to move the dial
8.
And what will you know come tomorrow I will run like a boy from his dad when he's in trouble I'm in sorrow 'Cus tomorrow isn't even on my mind Sitting in my room you look so beautiful Drinking so fast as the time was going past but you didn't care I'm in sorrow 'Cus tomorrow isn't even on my mind And I will never wake up I will never wake up till I see you again I'm in sorrow 'Cus tomorrow isn't even on my mind
9.
Love is like a blanket, it keeps you warm And I can't seem to shake it I try and get cold alone Don't you worry about me, I will pull through This crying heart has nothing left but you Don't let this bring you down Don't let this tear you down Don't let this bring you down I'm all alone leaving for home Waiting for you I'm all alone waiting for you Blame it on me I am sorry for things I do to me Not trusting no one no more This motherfucker said I'd probably wind up dead But I just don't care anymore This broken box of strings This worn out heart sings songs no one hears anymore Please let this bring you down Please let this tear you down Please let this bring you down
10.
I wanted to talk to you tonight See the flowers fade into the night I'm trying on my own Watch the shadows fade into the walls We didn't get to see it all I'm trying on my own And why would you try to fly without your wings 'Cus you might fall like me Waking up longing for the night Sleeping on through the morning light
