Lyrics

It takes a hell of a heart to know what a heart really needs
And I'm findin' out that love ain't what love's cut out to be
And if I was not my mama's boy, I'd leave you cryin' in this car
Punch a hole in your damn dashboard and forget the girl you are

We've been fighting for so long, it'd be a shame to let this go
But I'd rather let it lie than hurt a sweet girl I know
And it's gettin' dark now, so won't you just stay?
And I'll tell you that I love you 'til the leaving goes away

Until the leaving leaves this house, no, we ain't going out
'Til I make some promises that I can't keep
And I wish I could explain how the toxins in my brain
Get me so damn down, sometimes I can't speak

And you'll try to understand why I can't be a better man
But it's hard when I'm yellin' at you in the street
So if leavin' comes to stayin' and you walk yourself away
Leave knowin' that no-one could love you more than me

And I hope the world don't mind all the simple things I ask
Like a porch with good lightin' and to hear my lady laugh
And I'll act indifferent because I don't wanna leave
'Cause leaving's for a younger man that I don't wanna be

Until the leaving leaves this house, no, we ain't going out
'Til I make some promises that I can't keep
And I wish I could explain how the toxins in my brain
Get me so damn down, sometimes I can't speak

And you'll try to understand why I can't be a better man
But it's hard when I'm yellin' at you in the street
So if leavin' comes to stayin' and you walk yourself away
Leave knowin' that no-one could love you more than me
