forget you if i could
you’re the punctuation in my mind’s book
honey in the wood
glowin' in the warm sunshine
funny how i could leave it all behind
if i knew your heart was as ready as mine
droolin’ on the page
blurrin’ all the words i’m supposed to read next
daydreamin’ mind
draggin' me around, makin’ a mess
skatin' on the ice i’ve made with my tears
that i froze with my fears
don’t it hurt? don’t it hurt so bad?
don’t it hurt?
don’t it hurt so bad it’s drivin' you mad?
you can’t go to bed, without feelin’ dead
tryin’ to be smart
been workin’ on my heart
tryin’ to take care
breathin’ in the air
puttin’ in the time
walkin’ that line
oh, it leads me to where i can kiss your smile
but don’t it work
don’t it work in the end
don’t it work
don’t it work in the end
like Something’s holdin’ the strings
turnin’ the wheels
growin’ the fields
like Someone’s guiding her hand
into my hand
organic and planned
and it hurts so bad
so i can see all the good i’ve had
and it takes so long
so i can see all the places i went wrong
and it hurts so bad
so i can sing a song
yeah, it hurts so bad
so i can sing a song
and it hurts so bad
so bad
and i can go to bed
without feelin’ so dead
and i can wake up
and start it all again
