Lyrics for Song: Pretty Girl From Michigan
Lyrics for Album: The Carpenter [2012]
Can you not see what you've done?
You gave your heart away like that
I didn't want to fall in love with anyone but you dear
I can still hear the song, the melody behind the kiss you gave me
You were wrong, I was right so I walked away
And left you there, alone
I got so tired of talking on the telephone
How many times would we say the words good bye
I've made mistakes, and one was telling you
that I'll be there when telling time had come
I should've said I didn't care
Oh, the time I would've saved if I had been
less willing to accommodate
You'd been a little less likely to cry
You'll go back to the hard life
And I'll go back to the lone
I should've known, but now I know
There'll be no word from you describing how it felt
to go through what I put you through
It all makes á¹—erfect sense
The way you cut the rope that kept you dangling
from such pitiful amounts of hope
I would have cut it too
