“Everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they’re right…and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.” ― Marilyn Monroe
I Almost Do
I bet this time of night you’re still up
I bet you’re tired from a long, hard week
I bet you’re sitting in your chair by the window, looking out at the cityAnd I bet sometimes you wonder about me
And I just want to tell you
It takes everything in me not to call youAnd I wish I could run to you
And I hope you know that
Everytime I don’t,
I almost do, I almost doI bet you thinkI either moved on or hate you
‘Cause each time you reach out there’s no reply
I bet it never ever occurred to you that I can’t say hello to you
And risk another goodbyeWe made quite a mess, babe
It’s probably better off this way
And I confess, babe
That in my dreams you’re touching my face
And asking me if I want to try again with youAnd I almost do
And I just want to tell you
It takes everything in me not to call you
And I wish I could run to you
And I hope you know thatEverytime I don’t,
I almost do, I almost doI bet this time of night you’re still up
I bet you’re tired from a long, hard week
I bet you’re sitting in your chair by the window, looking out at the city
And I hope sometimes you wonder about me
I Knew You Were Trouble
Once upon time
A few mistakes ago
I was in your sights
You got me alone
You found me
You found me
You found me, I guess you didn’t care
And I guess I liked that
And when I fell hard
You took a step backWithout me, without me, without me
And he’s long gone
When he’s next to me
And I realize the blame is on me
Cause I knew you were trouble when you walked inSo shame on me now
Flew me to places i’d never been
So you put me down
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places i’d never beenNow i’m lying on the cold hard ground
Oh, oh, trouble, trouble, trouble
Oh, oh, trouble, trouble, troubleNo apologies
He’ll never see you cry
Pretend he doesn’t know
That he’s the reason why
You’re drowning, you’re drowning, you’re drowningAnd I heard you moved on
From whispers on the street
A new notch in your belt
Is all I’ll ever be
And now I see, now I see, now I see
He was long gone
When he met me
And I realize the joke is on me
When your sadest fear comes creeping in
That you never loved me or her or anyone or anythingI knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places i’d never been
So you put me down
I knew you were trouble when you walked inSo shame on me now
Flew me to places I’ve never been
