There were things when we got here, there’ll be things when we are gone
And we’ll never figure out which of these two is one
Because the harder that we try, we amplify the damage done
And I can’t be everything I am to everyone at once
You say the same old words time and time, how things are gonna change
Well, darling, I’ve been staring out the window all day
Maybe we use the same words and we mean different things
And maybe when I leave this town, you won’t depart with me
Maybe the promise of a better day can’t put the wind beneath your wings
But I know tomorrow’s okay if you just get on your feet
Just get on your feet
Can you call this night a blessing if, for me, it is a curse?
Can you try a thousand different paths, and can you tell me which is worst?
Are you ever gonna listen if these words all sound rehearsed?
Or will you try to drown them out, like every quench-resistant thirst?
Just because you hear, it doesn’t mean you’re listening
I keep saying, saying, saying the same old thing
Baby, what do I say to make you understand?
I want you in my life, my love, oh, won’t you be my man?
I don’t know all the things I keep on fucking up, trying, please, please
Maybe we use the same words and we mean different things
And maybe when I leave this town, you won’t depart with me
Maybe the promise of a better day can’t put the wind beneath your wings
But I know tomorrow’s okay if you just get on your feet
Just get on your feet
You push, you pull, you run away, you drag me in your car
I don’t want this love anymore
You push, you pull, you run away, you swear you’re gonna change
I don’t believe you, I don’t believe you, babe
You push, you pull, you run away, you drag me in your car
I don’t want this love anymore
You push, you pull, you run away, you promise me things will change
Maybe we use the same words and we mean different things
And maybe when I leave this town, you won’t depart with me
Maybe the promise of a better day can’t put the wind beneath your wings
But I know tomorrow’s okay if you just get on your feet
Just get on your feet
Just get on your
