Stakes Are High

I dove into your heart like a pool
But there was no water in it and I felt like a fool
When I hit the concrete bottom and I broke in two
Oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh

Walked to the hotel through the door
But the man at the desk said you weren't staying there no more
And I felt so stupid, so sorry that I called you a whore
Oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh

You were just doing what you had to do
And I feel so dumb for being mad at you, oh-oh
I can't stay mad, I can't stay mad at you
I can't stay mad, I can't stay mad at you
My heart is full, I've got no room, no room, oh

I grew up with my family
But I did not want to leave and I cried like a baby
I asked could I ever come back home and my dad said maybe
Oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh

So I found a new place to live
But I had trouble figuring out what's not real and what is
The big city was so crazy, I could hardly even breathe
Oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh

And now, I'm living in a fantasy
And I will always live there probably, oh-oh
You could move in, you could move in with me
You could move in, you could move in with me
The stakes are high, the trees are green, okay

We're all just doing what we have to do
Nothing will ever be like it was back in 1992, no
I can't stay mad, I can't stay mad at you
I can't stay mad, I can't stay mad at you
My heart's real full, but I'll make room, I'll make room
I'll make room, I'll make room

Oh-oh-oh, okay, well
Oh, oh-oh (oh, oh-oh)
Whoa, oh-oh (oh, oh-oh)
Oh, oh-oh (oh, oh-oh)
Oh (oh, oh-oh)

I gotta tell you that the stakes are high
And the stakes are high and the trees are green
Don't be mean, and don't be mean, no, no, no, no, no, no

(Oh, oh-oh)
Oh, oh-oh (oh, oh-oh)
Whoa, oh-oh (oh, oh-oh)
Whoa, hey!
One, two, three, four!
