Pretty Little Girl

Nineteen your eyes are glowing into my beating heart

Oh it seems like it is fine as my hand is moving up your arm

And you never really know where it goes up until it starts

I’ve got my eye on you, whatca gonna do?

Day dream near a stream with a winter bite

Oh, I listen to the song on repeat from the other night

And I can’t picture you but I sure got the feelin right

What a crazy world, pretty little girl

And we wake from the night in a bed with a bruise

And we’re laughing out loud over the craziest news

When you reach for my hand I was scared in your room

We fell on the floor and we started to move

And your hands were like birds as they flew from the coop

Up my back they would climb just as I came unglued

She said if you break my heart then I’ll change your mind

And I’ll do it again

If you play the part then I will play mine

And I’ll do it again

If we miss the mark if we hold on tight

We’ll be there to try it again

Nineteen as we roll across the bedroom floor

Your eyes they came alight as you’re dreaming of our future home

And the kids are growing up as you and I we are growing old

What a crazy world, pretty little girl

In the rain with a drink from the back of the bar

I’m raising my voice, you raise it up more

We forget that our lives have been apart it is hard

We thought we are close but it still feels far

And we learn to get by if we learn to have scars

We learn to forgive and except who we are

You said if you break my heart then I’ll change your mind

And I’ll do it again

If you play the part then I will play mine

And I’ll do it again

If we miss the mark if we hold on tight

We’ll be there to do it again

Wait a minute hold up a second

Don’t leave me here with this feelin

Like I’m the one for regrettin

Like I never did coke for a spoke

Like I never did pulled out that weapon

And stick that knife through my back

Was I supposed to except it when your words are like

More than just sticks and stones kinda like a bullet

I don’t tip that lies in my bones and I can’t just swallow it

My pride is more than all that I own so I gotta give it away

Some of the times I’m all the way wrong but can’t you see past

Me and see my fucked up home that made me the meanest

The devil is just singin alone to the song I write to alone at night

And I hang up the phone and bite my tongue

Cause I know that me and you is just only right, but one…

It’s a cry from the past we have been through a lot

Every year has been great and a few have been tough

And the kids they will reach for the stars up above

I said relax we are sure in the night

All the ropes to the life from the crypt to the grave

We started alone in the end we’re ok

You said if you break my heart then I’ll change your mind

And I’ll do it again

If you play the part then I will play mine

And I’ll do it again

If we miss the mark if we hold on tight

We’ll be there to try it again
