Kelly Clarkson Lyrics for Song: Because Of You
 Lyrics for Album: Greatest Hits – Chapter 1 [2012]
 
 
 
 15973>I will not make the same mistakes that you did
 
 I will not let myself cause my heart so much misery
 
 I will not break the way you did
 
 You fell so hard
 
 I've learned the hard way, to never let it get that far
 
 
 
 Because of you
 
 I'll never stray too far from the sidewalk
 
 Because of you
 
 I learned to play on the safe side
 
 So I don't get hurt
 
 Because of you
 
 I find it hard to trust
 
 Not only me, but everyone around me
 
 Because of you
 
 I am afraid
 
 
 
 I lose my way
 
 And it's not too long before you point it out
 
 I cannot cry
 
 Because I know that's weakness in your eyes
 
 I'm forced to fake, a smile, a laugh
 
 Every day of my life
 
 My heart can't possibly break
 
 When it wasn't even whole to start with
 
 
 
 Because of you
 
 I'll never stray too far from the sidewalk
 
 Because of you
 
 I learned to play on the safe side
 
 So I don't get hurt
 
 Because of you
 
 I find it hard to trust
 
 Not only me, but everyone around me
 
 Because of you
 
 I am afraid
 
 
 
 I watched you die
 
 I heard you cry
 
 Every night in your sleep
 
 I was so young
 
 You should have known better than to lean on me
 
 You never thought of anyone else
 
 You just saw your pain
 
 And now I cry
 
 In the middle of the night
 
 For the same damn thing
 
 
 
 Because of you
 
 I'll never stray too far from the sidewalk
 
 Because of you
 
 I learned to play on the safe side
 
 So I don't get hurt
 
 Because of you
 
 I tried my hardest just to forget everything
 
 Because of you
 
 I don't know how to let anyone else in
 
 Because of you
 
 I'm ashamed of my life because it's empty
 
 Because of you
 
 I am afraid
 
 
 
 Because of you
 
 Because of you
