Goodbye's the only thing I ever knew how to say Always had a heart that never knew how to stay Leavin', never felt like I was runnin' away As long as I found someone else Late at night was everything that I understood Missin' you would always end up feelin' so good Comin' back, it never made me do what I should I just sit and blame myself Why was I itchin' to get out of Nashville so bad? I made you believe my dreams were the only dreams we had I've been around this town, rode both sides of the tracks And I know, girl, that you ain't comin' back I just wanted you to know, you're the best I never had You know I was just a little out of my league I guess that I was wilder than you wanted to be I tried to hide the devil that was hidin' in me But you saw right through it all Why was I itchin' to get out of Nashville so bad? I made you believe my dreams were the only dreams we had And I've been around this town, rode both sides of the tracks And I know, girl, that you ain't comin' back I just wanted you to know, you're the best I never had Never had your heart (never had your heart) Never had your love (never had your love) And I never had a chance to tell you Why I was itchin' to get out of Nashville so bad I made you believe my dreams were the only dreams we had I've been around this town, rode both sides of the tracks And I know, girl, that you ain't comin' back I just wanted you to know, you're the best I never had

Away, running away Still, I can't fight it And it's on you You know just when to show up uninvited Closing my eyes, waiting on you To come and bite it So come and bite, ah Coming to see me Without a warning Standing outside at 3 in the morning Calling my name You cannot blame me For trying to be cautious Now we're in too deep Can't fall asleep I know you know that I want this You know I want ya Haa When you call because you miss me but you won't say it When you're making things really fucking complicated Even when I don't know if we're gonna make it Even when I hate it You're the best I ever had You're still, you're still, you're still The best I ever had You're still, you're still, you're still The best I ever had And I know it's bad, yeah Even when I'm mad I'm still holding on to you Your hands around my heart, you're in control You're the only one I keep so close Cause no other love has ever felt right It never felt right, no Got you on my mind Got you on my mind and there's nowhere to go Trying to find a way I can let you go Breaking my heart, but I still beg for more Gripping onto my soul Cause you're the best I ever had You're still, you're still, you're still The best I ever had You're still, you're still, you're still The best I ever had And I know it's bad, yeah Even when I'm mad I'm still holding on to you When you call because you miss me but you won't say it When you're making things really fucking complicated Even when I don't know if we're gonna make it Even when I hate it

Chemical change You've shot the warning amber light Wake me warm Let me see you moving everything over Smiling in my room You know you'll be inside of my mind soon There are so many of you White shirt and tie, white shirt and tie, white shirt and tie Wedding ring, wedding ring Mulligan stew for Bloo The only Jew in the room Saxon's sick on the holy dregs And they're constant getting throw up on his leg Molly's gone to blazes Boylan's crotch amazes Any woman whose husband sleeps with his head All buried down at the foot of his bed I've got his arm I've got his arm I've had it for weeks I've got his arm Steven won't give his arm To no gold star mother's farm War's good business so give your son And I'd rather have my country die for me Sell your mother for a Hershey bar Grow up looking like a car there are All you want to do is live All you want to do is live But somehow it all falls apart

Jefferson was always out of luck I remember when we both grew up Jefferson got hit by a westbound truck I guess that didn't make him look like a million bucks That night when Sally really stole the show And every boy was captured diggin' for gold Poor old Jefferson was left in the snow I'm gonna pray for Jefferson Pray for Jefferson's soul I'm gonna pray for Jefferson Pray for Jefferson's soul Jefferson is always on my mind When him and me were runnin' out of time Jefferson was sure not left behind The cops came in and took him by surprise That night when Sally really showed her game The neighbourhood would never be the same Poor old Jefferson got the blame Oooh I'm gonna pray for Jefferson Pray for Jefferson's soul I'm gonna pray for Jefferson Pray for Jefferson's soul I'm gonna pray for Jefferson Pray for Jefferson's soul Yeah I'm gonna pray for Jefferson Pray for Jefferson's soul I do believe he didn't do wrong I say a prayer for someone I care for I do believe he didn't do wrong I say a prayer for someone I care for That night where Sally really gave it all And made us small boys look quite tall Poor old Jefferson left the ball Yeah I'm gonna pray for Jefferson Pray for Jefferson's soul I'm gonna pray for Jefferson Pray for Jefferson's soul I'm gonna pray for Jefferson Pray for Jefferson's soul I'm gonna pray for Jefferson Pray for Jefferson's soul A-a-a-aah A-a-a-aah A-a-a-aah A-a-a-aah

Raindrops falling Winter feels so gloomy Hear a knock upon my door Stranger calling Eyes that look like mine He said you know I've called before What is veiled now soon will be shown Come walk with me through the unknown Familiar stranger Should I know your name Did we meet some time ago I feel uncertain Shadows whisper to me now Sudden wind begins to blow What is veiled now soon will be shown Come walk with me through the unknown Stranger Darkened doorways Strangest things can happen Don't know who you're talking to Find yourself When lightning strikes you now You could be looking back at you What is veiled now soon will be shown Come walk with me through the unknown What is veiled now soon will be shown Come walk with me through the unknown Stranger Familiar stranger Should I know your name Did we meet some time ago Are you someone I should know Did we meet some time ago
