Jer Coons - Legs lyrics
rate meWhen 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
