|
Twelve long weeks and I've thought myself into this hole, |
|
Just like I always do |
|
With your glass green eyes and your deep blue soul. |
|
In the morning you say, it won't mean anything |
|
And it doesn't break my heart, it just wears it out |
|
And I want to tell you everything but I'm too proud. |
|
I guess the truth is I'm as lost as I was before |
|
And I swear, I swear that I really believed it all. |
|
When you said that you wouldn't forget anymore. |
|
I wrote this song for you to see that nothing else |
|
Really meant as much to me. |
|
Now you've been drinking again and I've barely slept. |
|
Wasting days in a wasted haze with all the promises unkept. |
|
I took a trip back to my old hometown |
|
Where it's harder to remember your name. |
|
I searched the streets and the bottles and bars for an escape, |
|
But nothing has changed and it's still the same. |
|
I guess the truth is I'm as lost as I was before |
|
And I swear, I swear that I really believed it all. |
|
When you said that you wouldn't forget anymore. |
|
I wrote this song for you to see that nothing else |
|
Really meant as much to me. |
|
Thinking back on those late night drives |
|
And all those lonely August lies, |
|
You'll still be the one to take me home |
|
Cause God knows your eyes are the only ones I've ever known. |
|
I guess the truth is I'm as lost as I was before |
|
And I swear, I swear that I really believed it all. |
|
When you said that you wouldn't forget anymore. |
|
I wrote this song for you to see that nothing else |
|
Really meant as much to me. |
