I PUT ON MY MAKE UP
SPRAY MY PERFUME
SAT ON THE
FRONT PORCH
WAITIN' ON YOU
SAID WE WOULD
CATCH UP
BECAUSE IT HAD
BEEN AWHILE
I HATE TO ADMIT IT
BUT MY HANDS
ARE SHAKING
BARELY BREATHIN'
HEART IS RACIN'
LOOKS LIKE
FEELINGS
DON'T ALWAYS
CHANGE THEIR MINDS
BUT YOU
NEVER CALLED
NEVER SHOWED UP
GUESS SOME THINGS
NEVER CHANGE
AND JUST
LIKE LIVING IN
A FLASHBACK
YOU LET ME DOWN
AGAIN
THAT'S WHY THE PAST
SHOULD BE THE PAST
FAR BEHIND
BACK OF MIND
OUT OF THE WAY
LET THE MEMORIES
BURN AND CRASH
'CAUSE SITTIN' HERE
LOOKING AT THE
DRIVEWAY
IS JUST
TEARIN' MY HEART
BACK IN HALF
LIKE NOTHING'S
CHANGED EXCEPT THE
TIME THAT'S PASSED
AND THAT'S
WHY GOOD-BYE
SHOULD MEAN
GOOD-BYE
THE FIRST TIME
I SHOULD
KNOW BETTER
I HATE THAT
I STILL CRY
LOOKIN' LIKE A FOOL
HERE WATCHIN' FOR
HEADLIGHTS AND
KICKIN' MYSELF FOR
BELIEVIN' IN YOU
AGAIN
OH I BET
YOU'RE OUT DRINKIN'
WITH A NEW BLONDE
AND TELLING HER
WHATEVERS PLAYIN'
IS HER SONG YEAH
AND HELPING HER UP
INTO YOUR CHEVY
INSTEAD
EVEN WHEN YOU
DON'T HAVE ME
YOU CAN STILL
BE THE ONE
TO HURT ME
IT MUST FEEL
GOOD TO KNOW THAT
I'M STILL HOLDIN'
ON TO LETTING GO
AND
THAT'S WHY THE PAST
SHOULD BE THE PAST
FAR BEHIND
BACK OF MIND
OUT OF THE WAY
LET THE MEMORIES
BURN AND CRASH
'CAUSE SITTIN' HERE
LOOKING AT THE
DRIVEWAY
IS JUST
TEARIN' MY HEART
BACK IN HALF
LIKE NOTHING'S
CHANGED EXCEPT THE
TIME THAT'S PASSED
AND THAT'S WHY
GOOD-BYE
SHOULD MEAN
GOOD-BYE
ON THE FIRST TIME
4 BAR BREAK
YEAH
THAT'S WHY THE PAST
SHOULD BE THE PAST
FAR BEHIND
BACK OF MIND
OUT OF THE WAY
LET THE MEMORIES
BURN AND CRASH
'CAUSE SITTIN' HERE
LOOKING AT THIS
DRIVEWAY
IS JUST
TEARIN' MY HEART
BACK IN HALF
LIKE NOTHING'S
CHANGED EXCEPT THE
TIME THAT'S PASSED
AND THAT'S WHY
GOOD-BYE
SHOULD MEAN
GOOD-BYE
SO NOW
I'M LETTING YOU GO
JUST LIKE
I SHOULD HAVE TRIED
THE FIRST TIME
OH THE FIRST TIME
OH YEAH
YEAH
THAT'S WHY THE PAST
SHOULD BE THE PAST
OH
THE FIRST TIME
YEAH
