lyrics

Bloody Mary mornings
Turn to twelve pack afternoons
I know a train wreck’s coming
And I know it’s coming soon
And I’m not sure if I’m searching for
Or if I’m running from
But I do know that I’m all alone
If you call my name I’ll come

I’ll come to you
And make you see
No one could love you more than me
My poor heart
It aches for you
Worn down to seven shades of blue

I know that I’ve been messin’ up
Been doing stupid things
And it weighs me down with all the baggage
Being stupid brings
But I don’t want to be like this
It isn’t who I am
I know that if I could be with you
I’d be a better man

A better man
Just for you
No one could love you like I do
My poor heart
It longs for you
Worn down to seven shades of blue

I think you might be lonely
You know I’m lonely, too
We could be lonely together
Share the silence, me and you
If I could just be next to you
Lie there quietly
And listen to your heartbeat
It would be enough for me

Enough for me
To be with you
No one could love you like I do
My poor heart
It beats for you
Worn down to seven shades of blue
Worn down to seven shades of blue
