lyrics

When you asked me what I was thinking did my heart say too much
With my cigarettes and whisky drinkin' I was tryin' to get over her
I was holed up in some hotel, chasin' non existent dreams
When I realised I wasn't believing, in the love I'd sworn was real

I thought I didn't want her to go but all I missed was rock n roll
I'd done myself a favour just a few weeks later start to let it show
I let her fuck with my head let her leave me for dead but I'm still hanging on
This time last year she thought she'd be pissing on my gravestone

When I hear the stage lights calling puts a fire back in my eyes
So I pack my bags for my home town to see the run down streets in the light
I knock the dust from my speakers take my guitar down from the wall
She plays like I didn't leave her and I answer the blues man's call

The seconds tick by on my wrist watch another day nearer the grave
Getting bored of history repeating sick of same shit different day
I didn't get my forever fairy tale nor my candle lit last dance
First on the list of what she shoulda done, Shoulda killed me when she had the chance
