Her face when you've been
looking for a while
Left not a trace that we're
underneath the weather
And I tried to let go
and she slipped away
Like a little girl
And I really want to make her mine
My girl would never say
what I need to hear
To make it all okay
So we try to make nice
and the kids won't know
For a little while
But it really doesn't make it
I find you
alone a while with a heavy hand
and a dark lit smile
Let her find time to regret
what I still don't know
And I really want to make her mine
She wants to know just who I am
She wants to know just who I am
She can make you work
for the worth that she has
She wants to know just who I am
I'm guessing that it happens
all of the time
Through no fault of mine
she can turn it around
And she wasn't like
the best thing under the sun
But yeah I guess
I needed to learn from her
I guess I needed to open up
and let it all out
Your face when it all came down
with a bright light was
a little dark frown
I was unturned by that sharp alarm
and you weren't afraid
But it really doesn't matter
I tried you and forced a smile
And we were like friends
for an unsaid while
And I might've let go
maybe one of those nights
She stayed a while
and still I want to make her mine
She wants to know just who I am
She wants to know just who I am
She can make you work
for the worth that she has
She wants to know just who I am
I'm guessing that it happens
all of the time
Through no fault of mine
but she can turn it around
And she wasn't like
the best thing under the sun
But yeah I guess
I needed to learn from her
I guess I needed to open up
and let it all out
And she wasn't like
the best thing under the sun
But yeah I guess
I needed to learn from her
I guess I needed to open up
and let it all out
