Sugarland - Keep You lyrics

rate me

We said goodbye. Tried her hand at magic.

But we couldn't make us disappear.

Not a day goes by I don't wish I had you.

So in a way, I'm glad you're still here.

It's a bittersweet victory.

Lovin' the ghost in front of me.

Now I can't laugh, can't cry.

And I can't run, can't hide.

What do I gotta do?

What do I gotta do to keep you?

What do I gotta do to keep you from doing this to me?

I wrote a couple of notes.

One in love, one in anger.

They're lying there dying in the dresser drawer.

Lived louder than my voice. Struggled through a stranger.

He loved me until I loved you even more.

It's a bitter sweet victory.

Knowin' someone else wanted me.

Now I can't laugh, can't cry.

And I can't run, can't hide.

You get used to the pain, and numb to the sting

Till you can't feel anything.

You tried to explain, but I couldn't hear it.

As if your words were my tears.

Flowing freely, warm and quiet.

From the edges of my eyes, in my ears.

Then all that disappears.

Now I can't laugh, can't cry.

And I can't run, can't hide.

Now I can't laugh, can't cry.

And I can't run, can't hide.

What do I gotta do?

What do I gotta do to keep you?

What do I gotta do to keep you from doing this to me?
