Long ago I was not weary
Once I thought that I could see the light
But now I'm shut out in the darkness
Won't you help me make it through this night
And I know that you've seen trouble
I know that you have been blue
But I'd give my last dollar
To see you walk a mile in my shoes
Wicked ways have taken me, broken me apart
Rotten seed that I have sewn has overgrown my heart
But I think that you could save me if you care to spend the time
Just hope you leave your wicked ways behind with mine
Put down my glass to remember
Raise it up when I want to forget
Just when I think I've hit the bottom
I find out that I have nt started yet
Wicked ways have taken me, broken me apart
Rotten seed that I have sewn has overgrown my heart
But I think that you could save me if you care to spend the time
Just hope you leave your wicked ways behind with mine
So stop don't point that finger
Turn around and take a look inside
And if you find you are without folly
Walk along and play this song of mine
Wicked ways have taken me, broken me apart
Rotten seed that I have sewn has overgrown my heart
But I think that you could save me if you care to spend the time
Just hope you leave your wicked ways behind with mine

Well I'm a whole lot better than I ought to be
Don't know why things keep going right for me
All I've ever done is run wild and free
I'm a whole lot better than I ought to be
Well I guess I must've done something right
Some other time or place maybe some other life
There's no way I deserve how I've been blessed
If it was up to me I'd still be a mess
Cause I'm a whole lot better than I ought to be
Don't know why things keep going right for me
All I've ever done is run wild and free
I'm a whole lot better than I ought to be
And oh I don't wanna wake up
I just wanna keep living this dream
Oh I could never make up
Anything as good as what's happening to me
Well I try my best but I can do no wrong
Blues come my way but they never stay long
I thought I had it all when I didn't have a buck
It aint easy having all the luck
Well I'm a whole lot better than I ought to be
Don't know why things keep going right for me
All I've ever done is run wild and free
I'm a whole lot better than I ought to be
All I've ever done is run wild and free

The only thing she left was a tear stained letter
Said it's too late to try and make things better
I guess she's good as gone
I left her lonely too long
She held on waiting on me to change
But any kind of fool could've found a way to say I did you wrong
I left you lonely too long
And I should've saw it coming from a mile away
But I was just in time to watch her taillights fade
I'd give anything if she'd turn that car around and just come back home
But it's sure looking like she won't
I left her lonely too long , lonely too long
I should've thought about her instead of myself
Put her love first before anything else
That's where she belonged
But I left her lonely too long
And I should've saw it coming from a mile away
But I was just in time to watch her taillights fade
I'd give anything if she'd turn that car around and just come back home
But it's sure looking like she won't
I left her lonely too long , lonely too long
And I should've saw it coming from a mile away
But I was just in time to watch her taillights fade
I'd give anything if she'd turn that car around and just come back home
But it's sure looking like she won't
I left her lonely too long , lonely too long

I don't need empty love words coming from somebody
That'll never love me like you do
I don't need to feel a warm touch from somebody else cause
No other touch could be this true
They can't reach me cause I'm tied to
One woman, you, for me
I know that you're all I'll ever need
Forever beside you, spending my life loving
One woman
Well everything about you inside and out is perfect
Over the edge I always fall
Every time I see you the way I feel reminds me
The world I knew seems so small
Cause now with you I have it all
One woman, you, for me
I know that you're all I'll ever need
Forever beside you, spending my life loving
One woman
Well back when I was selfish
I thought I needed more
But that road led me nowhere
And I closed that door
And now I love for
One woman, you, for me
I know that you're all I'll ever need
Forever beside you, spending my life loving
One woman, you for me
I know that you're all I need
Forever beside you, spending my life loving

A hand-me-down hot rod holding down the interstate
Life in the fast lane staying out too late
Drunk on summertime
Crazy and hard to hold
A car full of dreamers parked in the parking lot
Waiting on the world and some girls was a long shot
Life was drug and we were hooked
We didn't know
We'll never be that high again
Stoned out our minds on innocence
Used to catch a buzz on the fact that it was Saturday night
We'll never be that high again
Tell me why did it have to end
You're only young once but man you're not too old to try
But you know you'll never be that high
I'll always remember when I met Jim Bean
Everybody laughed pretty hard at the first drink
Barely got it down thought I'd drowned when it took a hold
It hit me like a train to the brain feeling real tall
Twenty minutes later Jim hit me like a brick wall
Never felt as good as the first time that whiskey flowed
We'll never be that high again
Stoned out our minds on innocence
Used to catch a buzz on the fact that it was Saturday night
We'll never be that high again
Tell me why did it have to end
You're only young once but man you're not too old to try
But you know you'll never be that high
She kissed me in the back seat first time show me how
Knocked me off my feet wish I had that feeling now
I'll never be that high again
Stoned out my minds on innocence
Used to catch a buzz on the fact that it was Saturday night
I'll never be that high again
Tell me why did it have to end
You're only young once but man you're not too old to try
But you know you'll never be that

Peace of mind combined with everything you didn't say
Leaves me lonely only for the night. And everyday
You always run away from me and I run away from you
It's all the same I'm ashamed it had to turn out this way
Now every time reminds me how it's all a big clichÈ
You always run away from me and I run away from you
And I wish this time you would be mine for good
But the reason why you never stay is you say
You didn't know you could
Didn't know you could turn back right then
And spend your life with someone you just let go
A once in a lifetime blind love never saw the light of day
It cost us forever for better or for worse
And that's the price we pay
And I wish this time you would be mine for good
But the reason why you never stay is you say
You didn't know you could
And you always ran away from me
And I always knew you would
And you say the reason why you never stay

All the leaves have turned to rust
the air is getting thin
i can see my breathe
the night is rollin in
the skys grey its cold as a stone

and i wish you were here
the sad me tonight lying in this bed cause i
im just not the same
i walk down these streets
i swear i hear your name but its just in my head
i wish you were in my arms instead
i wasnt thinkin about you
when i thought i saw your car
cant escape you for long you know i never get to far
your every were i go
casue your every were ive been
your everything i wanted and i want you back again
casue you you've been on my mind
and i wish you were here
the sad me tonight lying in this bed cause i
im just not the same
i walk down these streets
i swear i hear your name but it's just in my head
i wish you were in my arms instead
I have to find a way thats just how it is
im stuck here in this place
casue you you've been on my mind
and i wish you were here
the sad me tonight lying in this bed casue i
im just not the same
i walk down these streeets
i swear i hear your name but its just in my head
i wish you were in my arms instead
i wish you were in my arms instead.

Everybody get your ticket, it's almost time
To set up this freak show, watch me unwind
For the next ninety minutes we'll be having the time of our lives
I might sing something pretty if I'm feeling loved
I might kick out the footlights if I drink too much
I'll give it all that I have hoping this time it might be enough
Till they pack up my guitars and unplug my star
Oh a ringmaster's night gets lonely after the big top comes down
Yeah cause I go from being somebody to just another clown
When the circus leaves town
Well it's cold, dark, and empty back in my cage
And it's all wasted hours till I'm back on stage
And it's scary sometimes what I will do to pass them away
You learn to live for the lights when they're keeping you alive
Oh a ringmaster's night gets lonely after the big top comes down
Yeah cause I go from being somebody to just another clown
When the circus leaves town
Oh a ringmaster's night gets lonely after the big top comes down
Yeah and I go from being somebody to just another clown
When the circus leaves town
When the circus leaves town
Yeah

Well I've been watching you stare at the floor
That guy's got two left feet
I may be wrong but you must be bored
You look like someone who I'd like to meet
I could walk over and say hello but I think I need one more drink
Looks like you might be getting ready to go
Better find some words quick now let me think
Well if things don't work out by the next song
And you're looking for someone who can dance
I'll be right over there by the juke box, a quarter in my hand
Trying to buy myself a chance
Saw my reflection in an empty glass so I rehearse my lines
Say I aint looking for trouble, I know you came in here with him tonight
Well if things don't work out by the next song
And you're looking for someone who can dance
I'll be right over there by the juke box with a quarter in my hand
Trying to buy myself a chance
Well here goes nothing I hope for something
I'm walking now across the floor
I cross my fingers, I tap your shoulder and I say I've never done this before
But if things don't work out by the next song
And you're looking for someone who can dance
I'll be right over there by the juke box
But if things don't work out by the next song
And you're looking for someone who can dance
I'll be right over there by the jukebox, quarter in my hand
Trying to buy myself a chance

Well this is pretty low, it aint the bottom
Still a long way to go, could I get you to follow
It all comes down to this just give me a reason
Cause I know I'll know I'll never win, we could break even
Cause I really don't care, I really don't care whose side I'm on
Cause there is always room at the bottom once the line's been drawn
And I know I'll never win, just let me go on believing
But there is still a chance that we could break even
Well this is gonna hurt, I can ease your pain
Cause once you've felt the fire you don't mind the rain
If you go down, down, down out in the deep end
Could you pull me up just enough to break even
Cause I really don't care, I really don't care whose side I'm on
Cause there is always room at the bottom once the line's been drawn
And I know I'll never win, just let me go on believing
But there is still a chance that we could break even
There's still a chance, still a chance she could save me
There's still a chance I'll just bring you down
Cause I really don't care, I really don't care whose side I'm on
Cause there is always room at the bottom once the line's been drawn
And I know I'll never win, just let me go on believing
But there is still a chance that we could break even
There is still a chance that we could break even
Yeah

The wolf is always knocking
Behind your back somebody's talking
Yeah the sun always sets at the end of the day
Nobody wins every game they play
Your lucky stars already taken
And every close call leaves you shaken
Don't be afraid if you have to fold
Just count your blessings and hit the road
Let it go, let it ride
You couldn't fix it if you tried
It's a whole lot worse holding it all inside
Let it go, set it free
There are some things you aren't supposed to keep
Don't go crazy over what you can't control
Let it go
When it's fixed but it still feels broken
And your favorite guitar gets stolen
When your back's up against the wall
And every step you take you fall
Let it go, let it ride
You couldn't fix it if you tried
It's a whole lot worse holding it all inside
Let it go, set it free
There are some things you aren't supposed to keep
Don't go crazy over what you can't control
Let it go
Everything happens for a reason
And you aint gonna stop it
If you build your own prison
Only you have a key to unlock it
Let it go, let it ride
You couldn't fix it if you tried
It's a whole lot worse holding it all inside
Let it go, set it free
There are somethings you aren't supposed to keep
Don't go crazy over what you can't control
Let it go

Well this is goodbye, the end of you and me
We've set this boat ablaze and pushed it out to sea
And nothing that's on board will survive
This is goodbye
Well this is goodbye, not the kind we've had before
We're out of one more tries, there won't be anymore
And all the grays have turned to black and white
This is goodbye
This is hard, this is hell
This is pain like I have never felt
This is final, love has failed
This is walking away from us to save ourselves
This is goodbye
Well this is goodbye, in my heart there's no doubt
Cause I can feel the broken pieces trying to cut their way out
Some of them I know I'll never find
This is goodbye
This is hard, this is hell
This is pain like I have never felt
This is final, love has failed
This is walking away from us to save ourselves
This is goodbye
This is final, love has failed
This is walking away from us to save ourselves
This is goodbye
