Jer Coons - Legs lyrics

rate me

When I finally heard the news my dear<br />

It wasn't from your mouth<br />

He just looked me in the eye<br />

And then he let the words spill out<br />

<br />

Darling I'm so happy<br />

You've been waiting for so long<br />

To finally find the guy to hold<br />

That has more right than wrong<br />

<br />

And what's this is it actually for real?<br />

I guess at least it's good to know<br />

You have a heart to steal<br />

I held it for a while<br />

Tell me that's not true<br />

My dear it's clear these last two years<br />

Have been a gift to you<br />

<br />

So picture this when you go to kiss<br />

I hope that every time<br />

You'll think of me<br />

And I'm gonna let it get to me<br />

<br />

I know the scars on your legs<br />

I've seen them<br />

In my head<br />

Like a map up to you<br />

When I'm climbing into bed<br />

And I don't think that it's fair<br />

That he would lie with you there<br />

And use my directions to<br />

Get right there next to you<br />

<br />

Forget the who, the what, the when<br />

The question is here is why<br />

You set the bar so high<br />

And then you dropped it for this guy<br />

<br />

You're into insincerity<br />

It's scary that I wonder<br />

Perhaps the bar was raised to high<br />

That he just walked right under<br />

<br />

And what's this is it actually for real<br />

Why don't you pick an extra day<br />

And call and ask her how she feels<br />

<br />

Suppose you could just wait a month<br />

You'll find out for yourself<br />

The worst part is the truth<br />

You're just like everybody else<br />

<br />

So picture this when you go to kiss<br />

I hope that every time<br />

You'll think of me<br />

Your then and now<br />

They will all run out<br />

I know he can't compare to what I used to be<br />

And I'm gonna let it get to me<br />

<br />

I know the scars on your legs<br />

I've seen them<br />

In my head<br />

Like a map up to you<br />

When I'm climbing into bed<br />

And I don't think that it's fair<br />

That he would lie with you there<br />

And use my directions to<br />

Get right there next to you<br />

<br />

Do you remember when we held each other<br />

On the twenty third?<br />

And as silent as your heart beat<br />

It was the only thing I heard<br />

<br />

Does he know your dogs' names<br />

Or the fact that he can't claim<br />

<br />

That he knows the scars on your legs<br />

Still see them in my head<br />

Like a map up to you<br />

When we climb into bed<br />

And I don't think that it's fair<br />

That I can't lie with you there<br />

And use my directions to<br />

Get right there next to you<br />

<br />

On your legs<br />

I've seen them in my head<br />

Like a map up to you<br />

When I'm climbing into bed<br />

And I don't think that it's fair<br />

That he would lie with you there<br />

And use my directions to<br />

Get right there next to you
