Avett Brothers - Pretty Girl From Michigan lyrics

rate me

Can you not see what you've done?

You gave your heart away like that

I didn't want to fall in love

With anyone, but you did

I can still hear the song

The melody behind the kiss that you gave me

You were wrong, I was right

So I walked away

And left you there alone

I got so tired of talking on the telephone

How many times would we say the words goodbye?

I made mistakes

And one was telling you that I'd be there

When telling time had come

I should have said I didn't care

Oh, the time I would have saved

If I had been less willing to accommodate

You'd been a little less likely to cry

You go back to the high life

And I'll go back to the low

I should have known, but now I know

There'll be no words from you

Describing how it felt to go through what I put you through

It all makes perfect sense

The way you cut the rope

That kept you dangling from such pitiful amounts of hope

I would have cut it, too
