We made it final today I gave you all I had You made your getaway All the love we once made Turned to memories today I left the courtroom and went straight to the church I hit my knees and told God how much I hurt Nothing left of my heart It's gonna be so hard to make a new start Cause' today my world slipped away We buried the plans that we made And tonight I'm alone and afraid Cause' today my world slipped away All my friends say I'll make it alright I'll recover and start a new life But that'll be so hard to do Cause' livin' ain't worth livin' without you Cause' today my world slipped away We buried the plans that we made And tonight I'm alone and afraid Cause' today my world slipped away Cause' today my world slipped away

She walked right up to me and took me by the hand An angel who could please most any man She said to me, I'm free and you're just my kind And for a moment you almost slipped my mind Almost, you almost slipped my mind I could taste, taste her kisses in the wine But your memory came and found me just in time But for a moment you almost slipped my mind Now I can see how sometimes a man can be so blind Let himself be led astray become the cheating kind I'd found myself falling for that same old line Yes, for a moment you almost slipped my mind Yes, for a moment you almost slipped my mind

I'm in the city you hated My eyes are falling Counting the clicks with the living dead My eyes are red I'm in the crush and I hate it My eyes are falling I'm having trouble inside my skin I try to keep my skeletons in Is it weird to be back in the south? And can they even tell That the city girl was ever there Or anywhere I'm having trouble inside my skin I try to keep my skeletons in I'll be your friend And a f*ck up and everything, But I'll never be Anything you ever want me to be. I keep coming back here where everything slipped But I will not spill my guts out I keep coming back here where everything slipped But I will not spill my guts out I don't need any help to be breakable, believe me I know nobody else who can laugh along to any kind of joke I won't need any help to be lonely when you leave me It'll be easy to cover Gather my skeletons far inside It'll be summer in Dallas Before I realize I don't want you to grieve But I want you to sympathize (alright) I can't blame you for losing Your mind for a little while (so did I) I don't want you to change But I want you to recognize (that I) It'll be easy to cover Gather your skeletons far inside It'll be summer in Dallas Before you realize That I'll never be Anything you ever want me to be I keep coming back here where everything slipped But I will not spill my guts out I keep coming back here where everything slipped But I will not spill my guts out

I wish you'd call me on the telephone I want to hear your voice Reaching late into the night I would live on the telephone if I was Listening to you talk about your day I nod my head, count the days gone by Since I held onto your words I used to call you on the telephone I couldn't catch my breath To expel a single word You would hang up your telephone You always looked confused Then you'd turn and close the blinds I nod my head, count the days gone by Since I held onto your words Pick up your telephone Pick up your telephone

All of your friends started wondering Why you were choking back tears at an easy goodbye Everything started feeling urgent today When you open your mouth, you have nothing to say Jaywalker with your head hung low You never saw it coming Moving your lips like you're wanting to smile Everything that you love always goes out of style Took a good chance on a triumph or two Hangin' around town never looked good on you Jaywalker with your head hung low You never saw it coming It's been a few years, you can barely recall Why the things that you said have you feeling so small Thirty-one years, now you're up on your feet Staring down at your shoes as you're crossing the street Jaywalker with your head hung low You never saw it coming Woke up confused in a hospital gown With your arm in a sling and nobody around Dreamed about Judy, she was driving a car You were crossing the street, didn't get very far Jaywalker with your head hung low You never saw it coming Jaywalker with your head hung low You never saw it coming

Judy and me, every week Would buy a ticket for the Wednesday night lottery She'd pick up the numbers, I'd pick it up Would it feel different if I was holding the winning one? What would you buy? I'd buy a ticket for the Thursday night and try to win twice Judy and me, every week Would order doubles 'til the numbers were released I wanted to pick them one week But I swore that'd be the week that they pick her numbers What would you buy? I'd buy a ticket for the Thursday night and try to win twice Judy and me, every time Would get our hopes up a little too high Judy and me would squint our eyes To read the numbers and say "Maybe next time" What would you buy? I'd buy a ticket for the Thursday night What would you buy? I'd buy a ticket for the Thursday night and try to win twice

Don't watch yourself, watch the movie This only happens for a little while Because Satan is waiting, Satan is wating With Halloween candy All of the best parts make you sorry All of the worst parts make you strong And Satan is waiting, Satan is waiting With Halloween candy One long disciplined life and at the end I'm taking my shoes off and jumping on in One invitation, one bite-sized bar Would you like to come swimming in the big lake of fire? One long disciplined life and at the end I'm taking my shoes off and jumping on in Satan is waiting, Satan is waiting Satan is waiting, Satan is waiting Satan is waiting, Satan is waiting Don't watch yourself, watch the movie

Oh, boy Norm Lays on his side With heavy eyelids And the price is right Breathes inward And drifts on out Losing the edges Winning the prizes And when the television's silent I speak into his dream "Stop these wicked ways And I will lead you to The promised land" Oh, boy Norm On his side Clutching the sofa Eyes open wide "Is someone in here?" He asks out loud Sits up straight Turns the TV down And looking all around him He hears it once again "Stop these wicked ways And I will lead you to The promised land"

A light conversation Floats between windows Then makes its way through the aisles So playful together I knew it would be It feels like I know you so well Oh, my Never want to leave your side This isn't the end Receipts and plastic bags Where did your car go?

We're leaving the city Where did your phone go? You get quiet, you are scared Just watching the sunset And I'm letting you know Just how long I've loved you for Oh, my Never want to leave your side This isn't the end Oh, my Never want to leave your side This isn't the end Oh, my Never want to leave your side
