Settling

Am I real? Am I true?
Am I borrowed? Am I blue?
Is it just the dust of leaving you
settling?

Am I fair? Am I strong?
When I'm there do I belong?
Is it only skin I touch
when I reach for you?

Oh, the leaves they fall,
they go so far sometimes.
Do I blame the wind
or the tree for letting you go?
Or do I wave goodbye,
setting?

Do I stay? Do I fight?
Is it wrong and nothing's right?
Or is it just the closet light
I've offered you?

So many times I needed
you to be strong for me.
But you bend beneath
the slightest breeze.
You have no leaves,
no leaves, no leaves...

Settling.
Am I fair? Am I strong?
Do I stay? Do I fight?
Is it just the closet light?
Is it only skin I touch,
or is it just the dust
settling?

Good Mother
I’ve got money in my pocket
I like the color of my hair
I’ve got a friend who loves me
Got a house, I’ve got a car
I’ve got a good mother
and her voice is what keeps me here

Feet on ground
Heart in hand
Facing forward
Be yourself
I’ve never wanted anything
No I’ve, no I’ve, I’ve never wanted anything
so bad...so bad

Cardboard masks of all the people
I’ve been
thrown out with all the rusted, tangled
dented God Damned miseries
You could say I’m hard to hold
But if you knew me you’d know
I’ve got a good father
And his strength is what makes me cry

Feet on ground
Heart in hand
Facing forward
Be yourself
I’ve never wanted anything
No I’ve, no I’ve, I’ve never
wanted anything so bad...
so bad

I’ve got money in my pocket
I like the color of my hair
I’ve got a friend who loves me
Got a house, I’ve got a car
I’ve got a good mother
and her voice is what keeps me here

Feet on ground
Heart in hand
Facing forward
Be yourself

Unwell

All day
Staring at the ceiling
Makin' friends with shadows on my wall
All night
Hearing voices telling
Me that I should get some sleep
Because tomorrow might be good for something
Hold on
Feeling like I'm headed for a
Breakdown and I don't know why

Well I'm not crazy
I'm just a little unwell
I know right now you can't tell
But stay a while and maybe then you'll see
A different side of me
I'm not crazy
I'm just a little impaired
I know, right now you don't care
But soon enough you're gonna think of me
And how I used to be

Me, I'm talking to myself in public
And dodging glances on the train
And I know
I know they've all been talkin' bout me
I can hear them whisper
And it makes me think that there must be something wrong
With me
Out of all the hours thinkin
Somehow I've lost my mind

Well I'm not crazy
I'm just a little unwell
I know right now you can't tell
But stay a while and maybe then you'll see
A different side of me
I'm not crazy
I'm just a little impaired
I know, right now you don't care
But soon enough you're gonna think of me
And how I used to be

I've been talkin in my sleep
Pretty soon they'll come to get me
Yeah, they're takin' me away

Well I'm not crazy
I'm just a little unwell
I know right now you can't tell
But stay a while and maybe then you'll see
A different side of me
I'm not crazy
I'm just a little impaired
I know, right now you don't care
But soon enough you're gonna think of me
And how I used to be
Yeah, How I used to be
How I used to be, yeah
Well I'm just a little unwell
How I used to be
(A little unwell)
How I used to be
I'm just a little unwell

Miss Independent
Miss independent
Miss self-sufficient
Miss keep your distance, no
Miss on her own
Miss almost grown
Miss never let a man help her off her throne
So, by keeping her heart protected
She'd never ever feel rejected
Little miss apprehensive
Said ooh, she fell in love

What is the feelin' takin' over?
Thinkin' no one could open the door
Surprise...It's time
To feel what's real

What happened to miss independent?
No more the need for me to miss him
Goodbye on you
Real love, true love is

Oooh...

Miss independent walked away
I'm so glad I finally feel...

What is the feelin' takin' over?
Thinkin' no one could open the door
Surprise (surprise), it's time
To feel (to feel) what's real

What happened to miss independent?
No one more the need for me to miss him
Goodbye on you
Real love, true love is
Real...

Bring Me To Life

How can you see into my eyes like open doors?
Leading you down into my core
Where Ive become so numb

Without a soul
My spirit's sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead it back home

[wake me up] Wake me up inside
[I cant wake up] Wake me up inside
[Save me] Call my name and save me from the dark
[Wake me up] Bid my blood to run
[I cant wake up] Before I come undone
[Save me] Save me from the nothing Ive become

Now that I know what I'm without
You cant just leave me
Breathe into me and {make me real}
Bring me
To life

{Bring me to life}
[Ive been living a lie..Theres nothing inside]
{Bring me to life}

Frozen inside without your touch
Without your love, darling
Only you are the life among the dead

[All of this I, I cant believe I couldnt see
Kept in the dark, but you were there in front of me]

Ive been sleeping a thousand years it seems
Got to open my eyes to everything

[Without a thought, without a voice, without a soul]
{Dont let me die here}{You must be sacrificed}
Bring me to life

Bring me to life
[Ive been living a lie.. Theres nothing inside]
Bring me to life

Every Breath You Take

Every breath you take
Every move you make
Every bond you break
Every step you take

I'll be watching you

Every single day
Every word you say
Every game you play
Every night you stay

I'll be watching you

Oh can't you see
You belong to me
How my poor heart aches with every step you take

Every move you make
Every vow you break
Every smile you fake
Every claim you stake

I'll be watching you

Since you've gone I've been lost without a trace
I dream at night I can only see your face
I look around but it's you I can't replace
I feel so cold and I long for your embrace
I keep crying baby, baby please

Oh can't you see
You belong to me
How my poor heart aches with every step you take

I Need Love

I'd cross the desert to be where you are
All the things I'd do to be close to you
A million miles wouldn't seem that far
I'd go anywhere just to win your heart.

But wherever this leads
There's something I need...

I need love
The kind that makes you wanna live
The kind that makes you wanna breathe
The kind that makes you feel too much
And I need you
To help me find a better way
And I guess you never thought you'd hear me say
I need love
I need love

And when I see you I just lose my mind
You're the everything I thought I'd never find
Must be an angel watching over me
With a little luck we're gonna make you mine
'Cause I wannna believe (I want to believe)
In all we can be (all we can be)

And oh, I will catch you when you fall

Be the greatest love of all
I promise to be
If you give me what I need, I need

I need love
I need you
The kind that makes you feel
The one that makes you wanna live
The one that makes you wanna breathe

I'd cross the desert
I'd cross the desert to be where you are

I'm Alive

I get wings to fly... Oh-oh
I'm alive... yeah.. yeah

When you call for me
When I hear you breath
I get wings to fly...
I feel that I'm alive

When you look at me
I can touch the sky
I know that
I'm alive

Ohh... Ooh.... alive

When you blessed the day
I just drift away
All my world is right
I'm glad that I'm alive

You set my heart on fire
Filled me with love
Made me a woman
I'm glad you're back

I couldn't get much higher
My spirit takes flight
(My spirit takes flight)
Because I'm alive
(Because I'm alive)

Ooh... never bound

(When you call on me)
When you call on me
(When I hear you breathe)
When I hear you breathe
(I get wings to fly...)
I feel that I'm alive

Oh yeah, I'm alive.

(When you reach for me)
When you reach for me
(Erases fear inside)
Loves knows that

That I'll be the one standing by
Through good and through tiring times
And it's only begun
I can't wait for the rest of my life

(When you call for me)
When you call on me
(When you reach for me)
When you reach for me
(I get wings to fly...)
Ah-ah...
(I feel that...)

(When you blessed the day)
When you blessed, you blessed the day
(I just drift away)
I just drift away
(All my world is dark)
I know that... I'm alive

Yeah...

I get wings to fly
God knows that I'm alive...

HAHA! Fooled you! A 3rd song.... Heard it on How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days and reminded me of it. I heard it originally on Dawson's Creek and is on the 1st soundtrack. It's a wonderful song, enjoy!

Feels Like Home

Somethin' in your eyes, makes me wanna lose myself
Makes me wanna lose myself, in your arms
There's somethin' in your voice, makes my heart beat fast
Hope this feeling lasts, the rest of my life

If you knew how lonely my life has been
And how long I've been so alone
And if you knew how I wanted someone to come along
And change my life the way you've done

It feels like home to me, it feels like home to me
It feels like I'm all the way back where I come from
It feels like home to me, it feels like home to me
It feels like I'm all the way back where I belong

A window breaks down a long, dark street
And a siren wails in the night
But I'm alright, 'cause I have you here with me
And I can almost see, through the dark there is light

Well, if you knew how much this moment means to me
And how long I've waited for your touch
And if you knew how happy you are making me
I never thought that I'd love anyone so much

Love Somebody

There's a new wind blowin' like I've never known.
I'm breathin' deeper than I've ever done.
And it sure feels good, to finally feel the way I do.
I wanna love somebody,
Love somebody like you.

An' I'm lettin' go of all my lonely yesterdays.
I've forgiven myself for the mistakes I've made.
Now there's just one thing, the only thing I wanna do
I wanna love somebody,
Love somebody like you.

Yeah, I wanna feel the sunshine,
Shinin' down on me and you.
When you put your arms around me,
You let me know there's nothing in this world I can't do.

I used to run in circles goin' no-where fast.
I'd take one step forward and two steps back.
Couldn't walk a straight line even if I wanted to
I wanna love somebody,
Love somebody like you.

Sometimes it's hard for me to understand,
But you're teachin' me to be a better man.
I don't want to take this life for granted like I used to do, no, no.
I wanna love somebody,
Love somebody like you.

Falling Down

If fear's what makes us decide
Our future journey
I'm not along for the ride
Cuz I'm still yearning
To try and touch the sun
My fingers burning
Before you're old you are young
Yeah I'm still learning

I am falling down
Try and stop me
It feels so good to hit the ground
You can watch me
Falling on my face
It's an uphill human race
and I am falling down

I'm standing out in the street
The earth is moving
I feel it under my feet
And I'm still proving
That I can stand my ground
And my feet are there, haven't washed my hair
Too be lost before you are found
Don't mean you're losing

Some day I'll live in a house
Etc., etc., etc.
Don't you know that's not for now
and for now I'm falling
down...down...down...

The Good Stuff

Well me and my lady had our first big fight
So I drove around till I saw the neon lightsat a corner bar
It just seemed right,so I pulled up
Not a soul around but the ole bar keep
down at the end lookin' half asleep
He walked up and said "What'll it be?"
I said,''The good stuff"
He didn't reach around for the whiskey
He didn't pour me a beer
His blue eyes kind of went misty
He said, "You can't find that here."

Cause its the first long kiss on a second date
your momma's all worried when you get home late
Droppin the ring in the spaghetti plate
cause your hands are shakin so much
It's the way that she looks with the rice in her hair
Eatin' burnt suppers the whole first year
and askin for seconds to keep her from tearin' up
Yeah man, that's the good stuff

He grabbed a carton of milk
and he poured a glass
then I smiled and said,
"I'll have some of that."
We sat there and talked as an hour passed
like old friends
Saw a black and white picture and it caught my stare
It was a perty girl with bouffant hair
He said, "That's my Bonnie, taken 'bout a year after we wed."
He said, "Spent 5 years in the bottle, when the cancer took her from me,
But I've been sober 3 years now
'Cause the one thing's stronger than the whiskey

Was the sight of her holdin' my baby girl
The way she adored that string of pearls
I gave her the day that our youngest boy Earl,
married his high school love
and it's a new t-shirt saying "I'm a grandpa"
and being right there as our time got small,
And holdin her hand when the good Lord called her up
Yeah man, That's the good stuff

He said, ''When you get home she'll start to cry,
When she says, ''Im sorry,'' say ''So am I''
Then look into those eyes so deep in love
and drink it up
'Cause thats the good stuff
That's the good stuff

Break Me

I will meet you
In some place
Where the light lends itself
To soft repose
I will let you undress me
But I warn you
I have thorns
Like any rose
And you could hurt me
With your bare hands
You could hurt me
With with the sharp end
Of what you say
But I'm lost to you now
And there's no
Amount of reason
That could save me
So break me
Take me
Just let me
Feel your arms again
Break me
I'll let you make me
Just let me
Feel your love again

Feels like being underwater
Now that I've let go
And lost control
Water kisses fill my mouth
Water fills my soul

Kiss me once
Or maybe twice
Oh, it never felt so nice
So break me
Take me
Let me
Feel your arms again
Break me
Make me
Just let me
Feel your arms again
Just let me
Feel your love again

Heaven

Oh, thinking about all our younger years
There was only you and me
We were young and wild and free
Now nothing can take you away from me
We've been down that road before
But that's over now
You keep me coming back for more

Baby, you're all that I want
When you're lying here in my arms,
I'm finding it hard to believe
We're in heaven
And love is all that I need,
And I found it there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're in heaven

Oh, once in your life you find someone
Who will turn your world around
Pick you up when your feeling down
Now nothing could change what you mean to me
There's a lot that I could say
But just hold me now
Cause our love will light the way

I've been waiting for so long
For something to arrive
For love to come along
Now our dreams are coming true
Through the good times and the bad
I'll be standing there by you

Gotta love them oldies!! :D

Ain't Too Proud To Beg

I know you wanna leave me,
But I refuse, to let you go.
If I have to beg, plead, for your sympathy
I don't mind, 'cause you mean that much to me

Ain't too proud to beg (sweet darlin'.)
Please don't leave me girl (don't you go.)
Ain't to proud to plead (baby,baby)
Please don't leave me girl (don't you go.)

Now I've heard a cryin' man,
Is half a man,
With no sense of pride.
But if I have to cry to keep you, I don't mind weepin',
If it'll keep you by my side.

If I have to sleep on your doorstep,
All night and day,
Just to keep you from walkin' away.
Let your friends laugh, even this I can stand,
'Cause I wanna keep you, anyway I can

Now I've got a love so deep in the pit of my heart,
And each day it grows more and more.
I'm not ashamed to come, and plead to you baby,
If pleadin' keeps you from, walking out that door

Saw bits and pieces of Armageddon last night...

I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing

I could stay awake just to hear you breathing
Watch you smile while you are sleeping
While you're far away and dreaming
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender
I could stay lost in this moment forever
Well, every moment spent with you
Is a moment I treasure

I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream would never do
I'd still miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing

Lying close to you
Feeling your heart beating
And I'm wondering what you're dreaming
Wondering if it's me you're seeing
Then I kiss your eyes and thank God we're together
And I just wanna stay with you
In this moment forever, forever and ever

I don't wanna miss one smile
I don't wanna miss one kiss
Well, I just wanna be with you
Right here with you, just like this
I just wanna hold you close
Feel your heart so close to mine
And just stay here in this moment
For all the rest of time

I listened to this song a bunch a year ago. For some reason, as I was talking to a special someone tonight, the song popped in my head. So I decided to put in here :)

Empty

Maybe it's been a little to long
Holding it in, trying to be strong
Funny the things we bottle up
Come streaming out when you feel enough
There is a trust the cautious will lack
Now that we've touched there's no holding back

I want to call out for love 'til I can't breath
I want to stare at the truth 'til I can't see
I want to pour out my soul 'til I'm empty

When only flesh and bone remain
I'll hold you close, then start again
Feeling nothing but a sweet release
When the ghosts are gone from inside of me
I've tried to fight it but what can I do
There's something deeper that surrenders to you

When I touch you, when I hear you
How can I doubt when everytime I'm near you
I want to call out for love 'til I can't breath
I want to stare at the truth 'til I can't see
I want to pour out my soul 'til i'm empty

I Am Mine

The selfish they're all standing in line...
Faith in their hope and to buy themselves time.
Me, I figure as each breath goes by,
I only own my mind.

The north is to south what the clock is to time.
There's east and there's west and there everywhere life.
I know that I was born and I know that I'll die.
The in between is mine. I am mine.

And the feeling it gets left behind...
Oh the innocence broken with time...
We're different behind the eyes, there's no need to hide.
We're safe tonight.

The ocean is full cause everyone's crying,
The full moon is looking for friends at high tide.
The sorrow grows bigger when the sorrows denied.
I only know my mind. I am mine.

Maybe

here i go
climbing the mountain
it's much too high for me
and here i go
crossing the ocean
losing myself, getting lost in the sea

where did i go wrong
when did i stop singing a love song

maybe i was wrong
maybe i was blind and could not see
and maybe you were never the one
and maybe you were not the one for me, maybe

here i go, posing the question
not sure of what i'll hear
and here i go refusing to let you answer
until i make myself so very clear

we can take what was wrong
we can end these words in a love song
maybe if we try
maybe we can start again when we've already said goodbye
maybe we can still be
what we always dreamed that we could be

and i know i was wrong to let you go
but i'm still holding on to let you know

maybe i was wrong
maybe i was blind and i could not see
oh but every hour is strong
and i'll sacrifice the very breath i breathe
if i could only hear you say to me
when i ask you if you think you still love me
maybe....

Here Is Gone

You and I got something
But it's all and then it's nothing to me
And I got my defenses
When it comes through your intentions for me

And we wake up in the breakdown
With the things we never thought we could be

I'm not the one who broke you
I'm not the one you should fear
We got to move you darling
I thought I lost you somewhere
But you were never really ever there at all

And I want to get free
Talk to me
I can feel you falling
And I wanted to be
All you need
Somehow here is gone

I am no solution
To the sound of this pollution in me
And I was not the answer
So forget you ever thought it was me

And I dont need the fallout
Of all the past that's in between us
And I'm not holding on
And all your lies weren't enough to keep me here

I know it's out there
I know it's out there
And I can feel you falling

Forgive

I always said that'd be it
That I wouldn't stick around
If it ever came to this
Here I am so confused
How am I supposed to leave
When I can't even move
In the time that it would've took to say
"Honey I'm home, how was your day"
You dropped a bomb right where we live
And just expected me to forgive

Well that's a mighty big word
For such a small man
And I'm not sure I can
'Cause I don't even know now who I am
It's too soon for me to say forgive

I should ask but I won't
Was it love or just her touch
'Cause I don't think I want to know
So get you some things and get out
Don't call me for a day or two
So I can sort this out
Well you might as well've ripped the life
Right out of me, right here tonight
When through the fallen tears you said
Can you ever just forgive

Well you know what they say
Forgive and forget,
Relive and regret

~ by Rebecca Lynn Howard

You're Gonna Miss Me When I'm Gone

I'm still hurtin' from the last time
You walked on this heart of mine
I can't find much to believe in
You let me down so many times
Heaven knows how I love you
But I'm tired of holding on
You better kiss me
'Cause your gonna miss me when I'm gone

Not much chance we're gonna make it
If I'm the only one who's trying
You know I'm running out of reasons
And we're running out of time
Someday, girl, you're gonna wake up
And wonder what went wrong
You better kiss me
'Cause your gonna miss me when I'm gone

You're good at going through the motions
All I hear are alibis
Not I get this empty feeling
When I look into your eyes
I don't see a love light shining
I don't know what's going on
You better kiss me
'Cause your gonna miss me when I'm gone

By Your Side

You think I'd leave your side baby?
You know me better than that
You think I'd leave down when your down on your knees?
I wouldn't do that

I'll do you right when your wrong
If only you could see into me

oh, when your cold
I'll be there to hold you tight to me
When your on the outside baby and you can't get in
I will show you, your so much better than you know
When your lost, when your alone and you can't get back again
I will find you darling I'll bring you home

If you want to cry
I am here to dry your eyes
and in no time you'll be fine

If only you could see into me

Oh when your cold
I'll be there
To hold you tight to me
Oh when your alone
I'll be there by your side baby

Fine Again

It seems like every day’s the same
and I’m left to discover on my own
It seems like everything is gray
and there’s no color to behold
They say it’s over and I’m fine again
Try to stay sober feels like I’m dying here

And I am aware now of how
everything’s gonna be fine one day
Too late, I’m in hell
I am prepared now,
seems everyone’s gonna be fine
One day too late, just as well

I feel the dream in me expire
and there’s no one left to blame it on
I hear you label me a liar
‘cause I can’t seem to get this through
You say it’s over, I can sigh again
Why try to stay sober when I’m dying here

And I’m not scared now.
I must assure you,
you’re never gonna get away
And I’m not scared now.
And I’m not scared now. No…

One day too late, just as well
I am prepared now,
seems everything’s gonna be fine for me
For me; for myself.

Beautiful

Don't look at me...

Everyday is so wonderful, then suddenly, it's hard to breathe
Now and then I get insecure, from all the pain
I'm so ashamed

I am beautiful no matter what they say
Words can't bring me down
I am beautiful in every single way
Yes words can't bring me down
So don't you bring me down today

To all your friends you're delirious
So consumed, in all your doom
Trying hard to fill the emptiness, the pieces gone,
Left the puzzle undone, is that the way it is?

You are beautiful no matter what they say
Words can't bring you down, no, no
Cause you are beautiful in every single way
Yes words can't bring you down. Oh, no
So don't you bring me down today

No matter what we do,
No matter what we say,
We're the song inside the tune, full of beautiful mistakes
And everywhere we go,
the sun will always shine
And tomorrow we might awake on the other side

'Cause we are beautiful no matter what they say
Yes words won't bring us down, no
We are beautiful in every single way
Yes words can't bring us down, oh , no
So don't you bring me down today

I'm in a country funk right now...bear with me, they're still great lyrics. Most good lyrics are country :)

Cry

~by Faith Hill

If I had just one tear running down your cheek
Maybe I could cope maybe I'd get some sleep
If I had just one moment at your expense
Maybe all my misery would be well spent

Yeah.... Could you cry a little
Lie just a little
Pretend that you're feeling a little more pain
I gave now I'm wanting
Something in return
So cry just a little for me

If your love could be caged, honey I would hold the key
And conceal it underneath the pile of lies you handed me
And you'd hunt those lies
They'd be all you'd ever find
And that'd be all you'd have to know
For me to be fine

Yeah.... And you'd cry a little
Die just a little
and baby I would feel just a little less pain
I gave now I'm wanting
Something in return
So cry just a little for me

Give it up baby
I hear your goodbye
Nothins goin save me
I can see it it your eyes
Some kind of heartache
Darlin give it a try
I dont want pity
I just want what is mine

Yeah... could you cry just a little for me

For Ali, the first person to suggest a song :)

Always

I hear... a voice say "Don't be so blind"...
it's telling me all these things...
that you would probably hide...
am I... your one and only desire...
am I the reason you breath...
or am I the reason you cry...

... always... always... always... always... always... always...
I just can't live without you...

I love you... I hate you...
I can't get around you...
I breathe you... I taste you...
I can't live without you...
I just can't take anymore...
this life of solitude...
I guess that i'm out the door...
and now i'm done with you...

I feel... like you don't want me around...
I guess i'll pack all my things...
I guess i'll see you around...
Inside... it bottles up until now...
as I walk out your door...
all I hear is the sound...

I left my head around your heart...
Why would you tear my world apart...
Always... always... always... always...

I see... the blood all over your hands...
does it make you feel... more like a man...
was it all... just a part of your plan...
this pistol's shakin' in my hands...
and all I hear is the sound...

Concrete Angel

She walks to school with the lunch she packed
Nobody knows what she's holdin' back
Wearin' the same dress she wore yesterday
She hides the bruises with linen and lace

The teacher wonders but she doesn't ask
It's hard to see the pain behind the mask
Bearing the burden of a secret storm
Sometimes she wishes she was never born

Through the wind and the rain
She stands hard as a stone
In a world that she can't rise above
But her dreams give her wings
And she flies to a place where she's loved
Concrete angel

Somebody cries in the middle of the night
The neighbors hear, but they turn out the lights
A fragile soul caught in the hands of fate
When morning comes it'll be too late

A statue stands in a shaded place
An angel girl with an upturned face
A name is written on a polished rock
A broken heart that the world forgot

I'm standing on a bridge
I'm waiting in the dark
I thought that you'd be here by now
There's nothing but the rain
No footsteps on the ground
I'm listening but there's no sound

Isn't anyone trying to find me?
Won't somebody come take me home
It's a damn cold night
Trying to figure out this life
Won't you take me by the hand
Take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
But I, I'm with you I'm with you

I'm looking for a place
Searching for a face
Is anybody here I know
'Cause nothing's going right
And everythings a mess
And no one likes to be alone

Oh, why is everything so confusing
Maybe I'm just out of my mind
Yeah, yeah, yeah

It's a damn cold night
Trying to figure out this life
Won't you take me by the hand
Take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
But I, I'm with you
I'm with you

At first she's gonna come on strong
Like she'll love you all night long
Like it's going out of style
Then she'll leave you with a smile

Well you can't help but wonder
Why you can't help but love her
But you can't help love her
And all that hurtin' was more than worth it
It's written all over your face

One day you'll pass her on the street
With that guy you used to be
She'll say hello and walk on by
Then she'll leave you with a smile

~She'll Leave You With A Smile by George Strait
