Stupid Boy
Keith Urban · The Story So Far [2012]
(Sarah Buxton - Deanna Bryant - Dave Berg)
Well, she was precious like a flower
She grew wild, wild, but innocent
A perfect prayer in a desperate hour
She was everything beautiful and different,
Stupid boy
You can't fence that in
Stupid boy
It's like holdin' back the wind.
Chorus:
She laid her heart and soul right in your hands
And you stole her every dream and you crushed her plans
She never even knew she had a choice
And that's what happens when the only voice she hears
Is telling her she can't, stupid boy,
Stupid boy.
So, what made you think you could take a life
And just push it, push it around
I guess to build yourself up so high
You had to take her, and break her, down.
Chorus:
She laid her heart and soul right in your hands
And you stole her every dream and you crushed her plans
She never even knew she had a choice
And that's what happens when the only voice she hears
Is telling her she can't, you stupid boy
Oh, You always had to be right
And now you lost the only thing
That ever made you feel alive.

Chorus:
She laid her heart and soul right in your hands,yeah
And you stole her every dream and you crushed her plans,yes you did,
She never even knew she had a choice
And that's what happens when the only voice she hears
Is telling her she can't,you stupid boy
Oh, I'm the same old, same old stupid boy
It took a while for her to figure out she could run
But when she did, she was, long gone, long gone...
Oh, she was gone,
She was long gone,
Oh, yeah she is
--- Instrumental ---
Nobody's ever gonna love me like she loved me
She loved me, she loved me
God please, just let her know
I'm sorry, I'm sorry
I'm sorry, I'm sorry baby,
Yeah, I'm down on my knees
She's never coming back to me
