I'm better at goodbye than just ever being good,
You know I'd saw off my whole leg just to spite the better foot
I've got a satchel full of sorrows, and I've carried my share of crosses
I'm not exactly proud of all the times I've cut my losses
Nothing in this world is easy, and nothing comes for free
Long time gone I stopped believing I could predict whats in for me
I've crawled cross town to meet you, in this little bar
And all you do is laugh at me and stare up at the stars
I don't think I understood a single word you ever said
but the sound your little voice had made just rang inside my head

Just because it ain't alright,
That don't make it all wrong,
You don't have to know the words
But I love it when you sing along....

I don't believe I can be trusted, I'm not sure of your real name
I'm positive that I don't care if it all ends up the same.
Nothing in this world is easy, and ain't nothing come for free
But I don't believe I ever earned the kiss you gave to me
I'd have followed you right out the door, and on across the sea
but something wicked in my way, I guess, for you to up and leave.
Just a whisper left against my flesh, ringing out like a church bell
resonating up my spine from your unspoken spell

Just because it ain't forever
That don't mean you just let go,
We don't have to be more than just you and me,
drifting where the wind may blow...

Just because you ain't all right,
that don't make me all wrong
You don't have to know the words,
but I love it when you sing along...

Tattooed there upon your hips, were two opposing battleships
sailing for the war that launched out from your lips
How can you really know once the time has gone,
You just dwell upon the silence or fill it up with song
It's nothing but a moment as short as it is sharp
performing without warning no way to know our part
follow what we've got to lead us and down the road we go
the futures always dark and the past is all we know.

You won me in the battle and i lost a little more than I can bare
in dark and starry nights i hear you singing in the air
I gave a little of myself away, more than i meant to share
And all i've got to carry now is what this shattered simple prayer

Just because it ain't alright
That don't make it all wrong
You don't have to know the words
but I love it when you sing along.

Just because it's now or never,
Don't mean its nothing or forever
You go the way the cold wind blows
And sometimes you need some shelter from the weather

Just because it ain't all right
That don't make it all wrong
You don't have to know the words
But I love it when you sing along.
