Before I met him I was so sane and grounded Before he taught me how to lie And crawl out the window I learned the dirt roads And I got my heart broken Cause that cowboy taught me how to cry And how to let go I thought there for a little while Every sunset I'd be a riding off with him |
Snap buttons on a denim shirt Blue jeans and a little dirt That's the closest you'll see me Feet hanging out a pickup truck Crazy and a little rough Running free That's the closest to a cowboy You'll see me |
It was all a little Wonderful and strange But I'll never look At a sunset the same night |
Snap buttons on a denim shirt Blue jeans and a little dirt That's the closest you'll see me Feet hanging out a pickup truck Crazy and a little rough Running free Sitting fishing by the river bank Swimming in the water tank That's the closest you'll see me Feet hanging out a pickup truck Crazy and a little rough Running free That's the closest to a cowboy You'll see me |
It's been a long time And seeing the shape of your name Still spells out pain It wasn't right The way it all went down Looks like you know that now |
Yes, I got your letter Yes, I'm doing better It cut deep to know ya, right to the bone Yes, I got your letter Yes, I'm doing better I know that it's over, I don't need your Closure, your closure |
Don't treat me like Some situation that needs to be handled I'm fine with my spite And my tears, and my beers and my candles I can feel you smoothing me over |
Yes, I got your letter Yes, I'm doing bettеr It cut deep to know ya, right to the bone Yes, I got your lеtter Yes, I'm doing better I know that it's over, I don't need your Closure, your closure Your closure, your closure |
I know I'm just a wrinkle in your new life Staying friends would iron it out so nice Guilty, guilty, reaching out across the sea That you put between you and me But it's fake and it's oh so unnecessary |
Yes, I got your letter Yes, I'm doing better It cut deep to know ya, right to the bone Yes, I got your letter Yes, I'm doing better I know that it's over, I don't need your Closure, closure, your closure Your closure |
You have a way of coming easily to me. And when you take, you take the very best of me. So I start a fight 'cause I need to feel somethin' And you do what you want 'cause I'm not what you wanted. |
Oh, what a shame. What a rainy ending given to a perfect day. Just walk away, no use defending words that you will never say. And now that I'm sittin' here thinkin' it through, I've never been anywhere cold as you. |
You put up walls and paint them all a shade of gray. And I stood there lovin' you and washed them all away. And you come away with a great little story Of a mess of a dreamer with the nerve to adore you. |
Oh, what a shame. What a rainy ending given to a perfect day. So just walk away, no use defending words that you will never say. And now that I'm sittin' here thinkin' it through, I've never been anywhere cold as you. |
You never did give a damn thing, honey. But I cried, cried for you. And I know you wouldn't have told nobody if I died, Died for you. |
Oh, what a shame. What a rainy ending give to a perfect day. Every smile you fake is so condescending. Counted all the scars you made. Now that I'm sittin here thinkin' it through, I've never been anywhere cold as you. |
You said it in a simple way 4am, the second day How strange that I don't know you at all Stumbled through the long goodbye One last kiss, then catch your flight Right when I was just about to fall |
I told myself, don't get attached But in my mind, I play it back Spinning faster than the plane that took you |
And this is when the feeling sinks in I don't wanna miss you like this Come back, be here, come back, be here I guess you're in New York today I don't wanna need you this way Come back, be here, come back, be here |
The delicate beginning rush The feeling you can know so much Without knowing anything at all And now that I can put this down If I had known what I know now I never would've played so nonchalant |
Taxi cabs and busy streets That never bring you back to me I can't help but wish you took me with you |
And this is when the feeling sinks in I don't wanna miss you like this Come back, be here, come back, be here I guess you're in London today And I don't wanna need you this way Come back, be here, come back, be here |
This is falling in love in the cruelest way This is falling for you when you are worlds away In New York, be here But you're in London, and I break down 'Cause it's not fair that you're not around |
This is when the feeling sinks in I don't wanna miss you like this Come back, be here, come back, be here I guess you're in New York today And I don't wanna need you this way Come back, be here, come back, be here |
Oh-oh, oh-oh I don't wanna miss you like this Oh-oh, oh-oh Come back, be here Come back, be here |

I could go back to every laugh But I don't want to go there anymore and I know all the steps up to your door But I don't want to go there anymore |
Talk to the wind, talk to the sky Talk to the man with the reasons why And let me know what you find |
[Chorus]: I'll leave my window open Cause I'm too tired tonight to call your name Just know I'm right here hoping That you'll come in with the rain |
I could stand up and sing you a song But I don't wanna have to go that far and I I've got you down, I know you by heart And you don't even know where I start |
Talk to yourself, Talk to the tears Talk to the man who put you here Don't wait for the sky to clear |
[Chorus]: I'll leave my window open Cause I'm too tired tonight to call your name Just know I'm right here hoping That you'll come in with the rain |
I've watched you so.. long screamed your name I don't know what else I can say |
But I'll leave my window open Cause I'm too tired tonight for all these games Just know I'm right here hoping You'll come in with the rain |
I could go back to every laugh But I don't want to go there anymore.. |
I could go back to every laugh But I don't wanna go there anymore And I know all the steps up to your door But I don't wanna go there anymore |
Talk to the wind, talk to the sky Talk to the man with the reasons why And let me know what you find |
I'll leave my window open 'Cause I'm too tired at night to call your name Just know I'm right here hoping That you'll come in with the rain |
I could stand up and sing you a song But I don't wanna have to go that far And I, I've got you down, I know you by heart And you don't even know where I start |
Talk to yourself, talk to the tears Talk to the man who put you here And don't wait for the sky to clear |
I'll leave my window open 'Cause I'm too tired at night to call your name Just know I'm right here hoping That you'll come in with the rain |
I've watched you so long, screamed your name I don't know what else I can say |
I'll leave my window open 'Cause I'm too tired at night for all these games Just know I'm right here hoping That you'll come in with the rain |
I could go back to every laugh But I don't wanna go there anymore |
Break my soul in two looking for you But you're right here If I can't relate to you anymore Then who am I related to? And if this is the long haul How'd we get here so soon? Did I close my fist around something delicate? Did I shatter you? |
And I'm sitting on a bench in Coney Island Wondering where did my baby go? The fast times, the bright lights, the merry go Sorry for not making you my centerfold |
Over and over Lost again with no surprises Disappointments, close your eyes And it gets colder and colder When the sun goes down |
The question pounds my head What's a lifetime of achievement If I pushed you to the edge? But you were too polite to leave me Do you miss the rogue Who coaxed you into paradise and left you there? Will you forgive my soul When you're too wise to trust me and too old to care? |
'Cause we were like the mall before the internet It was the one place to be The mischief, the gift-wrapped suburban dreams Sorry for not winning you an arcade ring |
Over and over Lost again with no surprises Disappointments, close your eyes And it gets colder and colder When the sun goes down |
Were you waiting at our old spot In the tree line By the gold clock Did I leave you hanging every single day? Were you standing in the hallway With a big cake, happy birthday Did I paint your bluest skies the darkest grey? A universe away And when I got into the accident The sight that flashed before me was your face But when I walked up to the podium I think that I forgot to say your name |
I'm on a bench in Coney Island Wondering where did my baby go The fast times, the bright lights, the merry go Sorry for not making you my centerfold |
Over and over Lost again with no surprises Disappointments, close your eyes And it gets colder and colder When the sun goes down |
When the sun goes down The sight that flashed before me was your face When the sun goes down But I think that I forgot to say your name Over and over Sorry for not making you my, making you my Making you my centerfold |
We were in the backseat Drunk on something stronger Than the drinks in the bar "I rent a place on Cornelia Street" I said casually in the car We were a fresh page on the desk Filling in the blanks as we go As if the street lights pointed in an arrow head Leading us home |
I hope I never lose you Hope it never ends I'd never walk Cornelia Street again That's the kinda heartbreak time could never mend I'd never walk Cornelia Street again And baby, I get mystified by how This city screams your name And baby, I'm so terrified of if you ever walk away I'd never walk Cornelia Street again I'd never walk Cornelia Street again |
Windows swung right open, autumn air Jacket 'round my shoulders is yours We bless the rains on Cornelia Street Memorize the creaks in the floor Back when we were card sharks, playing games I thought you were leading me on I packed my bags, left Cornelia Street Before you even knew I was gone |
But then you called, showed your hand I turned around before I hit the tunnel Sat on the roof, you and I |
I hope I never lose you Hope it never ends I'd never walk Cornelia Street again That's the kinda heartbreak time could never mend I'd never walk Cornelia Street again And baby, I get mystified by how This city screams your name And baby, I'm so terrified of if you ever walk away I'd never walk Cornelia Street again I'd never walk Cornelia Street again |
You hold my hand on the street Walk me back to that apartment Years ago, we were just inside Barefoot in the kitchen Sacred new beginnings That became my religion, listen |
I hope I never lose you I'd never walk Cornelia Street again Oh, never again And baby, I get mystified by how This city screams your name And baby, I'm so terrified of If you ever walk away I'd never walk Cornelia Street again I'd never walk Cornelia Street again |
I don't wanna lose you (Hope it never ends) I'd never walk Cornelia Street again I don't wanna lose you (Yeah) |
"I rent a place on Cornelia Street" I said casually in the car |
And the tennis court was covered up With some tent-like thing And you asked me to dance But I said, "Dancin' is a dangerous game" |
Oh, I thought This is gonna be one of those things Now I know I'm never gonna love again |
I've got some tricks up my sleeve Takes one to know one You're a cowboy like me |
Never wanted love Just a fancy car Now I'm waiting by the phone Like I'm sitting in an airport bar |
You had some tricks up your sleeve Takes one to know one You're a cowboy like me |
Perched in the dark Telling all the rich folks anything they wanna hear Like it could be love I could be the way forward Only if they pay for it You're a bandit like me |
Eyes full of stars Hustling for the good life Never thought I'd meet you here It could be love We could be the way forward And I know I'll pay for it |
You're a cowboy like me |
Perched in the dark Telling all the rich folks anything they wanna hear Like it could be love I could be the way forward Only if they pay for it You're a bandit like me |
Eyes full of stars Hustling for the good life Never thought I'd meet you here It could be love We could be the way forward And I know I'll pay for it |
And the skeletons in both our closets Plotted hard to fuck this up And the old men that I've swindled Really did believe I was the one And the ladies lunching have their stories about When you passed through town But that was all before I locked it down |
Now you hang from my lips Like the Gardens of Babylon With your boots beneath my bed Forever is the sweetest con |
I've had some tricks up my sleeve Takes one to know one You're a cowboy like me |
And I'm never gonna love again I'm never gonna love again I'm never gonna love again |
I've never gone with the wind Just let it flow Let it take me where it wants to go Till you open the door There's so much more I've never seen it before |
I was trying to fly But I couldn't find wings But you came along And you changed everything |
You lift my feet off the ground You spin me around You make me crazier, crazier Feels like I'm falling and I I'm lost in your eyes You make me crazier, crazier, crazier |
I watched from a distance as you Made life your own Every sky was your own kind of blue And I wanted to know How that would feel And you made it so real |
You showed me something That I couldn't see You opened my eyes And you made me believe |
You lift my feet off the ground You spin me around You make me crazier, crazier Feels like I'm falling and I'm Lost in your eyes You make me crazier, crazier, crazier |
Baby you showed me what living is for I don't wanna hide anymore |
You lift my feet off the ground You spin me around You make me crazier, crazier Feels like I'm falling and I'm Lost in your eyes You make me crazier, crazier,crazier |
I've been counting days and I've been being patient About a little thing called love Crossing all my fingers Letting my heart linger Trying to get some help from up above I don't want to jinx my luck I've left it all behind me And I've been hoping every day That someday you will find me |
So I cross my heart and hope for you Knock on wood and rope the moon I'll pray for you and me and hope I'm right And I wait around that old wishing well You never know if time will tell I cross my heart and hope for you tonight |
Dreaming of you baby I've been thinking maybe There is something I can do ‘Cause I've been on the verge of Running around in circles Baby all I want is you |
I don't want to jinx my luck I've left it all behind me And I've been hoping every day That someday you will find me |
So I cross my heart and hope for you Knock on wood and rope the moon I'll pray for you and me and hope I'm right And I wait around that old wishing well You never know if time will tell I cross my heart and hope for you tonight |
Do you believe in miracles Please tell me if you've seen one I'd like to know just where to go Because I think I need one |
So I cross my heart and hope for you Knock on wood and rope the moon I'll pray for you and me and hope I'm right And I wait around that old wishing well You never know if time will tell I cross my heart and hope for you tonight |
