i know you hear me - i can taste it in your tears.
there were no more tears in my eyes.
he started to worry ..
maybe his baby has gotten good at
goodbyes.
she only smokes when she drinks ..
so you lit her cigarette
you're feelin' pretty good
you think you've got a shot.
most girls you probably would
yeah this is that kind of place,
but she ain't that kind of girl.
you're readin' it all wrong,
let me tell you about her.
she only smokes when she drinks
she only drinks now and then
now and then when she's tired,
of bein' let down by men
you can give her a light
but it's not what you think
everybody knows she only drinks alone
and she only smokes when she drinks.
did you ask her to dance?
let me guess, she told you no
got to take her some place quiet,
and see how far that goes.
oh, don't take it all that hard
when she smiles and turns you down.
for a complicated girl ..
she ain't that hard to figure out.
see, now i don't know if i can handle you as just a friend.
aw baby i cant pretend,
aw baby im so far in.
but i don't mind as long as i can have you in my life.
aw baby im satisfied -
even if you're not just mine.
- said almost perfect
i've been driving and i've been thinking.
for at least a hundred miles.
and i'm seeing a lot of things I never saw before.
for the first time leaving you doesn't feel quite so wrong.
but, then again I've never been this far gone.
well I was running flat on empty
running scared for quite some time
so afraid of what I might do if I stopped
but I did and I can't believe ..
I'm back on the highway and not on the phone
but then again I've never been this far gone.
all the other times my heart turned me around
but this time I'm not going back
i'm way past that point now
you know I never really thought
i could make it on my own
but then again I've never been this far gone,
oh then again I've never been this far gone.
my hopes are so high tht your kiss might kill me.
so won't you kill me?
so i die happy?
my heart is yours to fill.
or burst.
or break.
or bury.
or wear as jewelery.
which ever you prefer.
