Nobody's Fault

I put my glass down on the table
And refused to catch her eye
I was smiling at the passers-by
And just nodded as she talked
Should we say it was nobody's fault
And finally, move on with our lives?
I'm no good at recognizing silver linings

And I'm still here learning loneliness
And you are still afraid of taking chances
It's tearing me down, it's building me up
All we ever do is learning how to forget

If you ever make it back to town
I'll be at that same old bar
Drinking whiskey and playing my guitar
With my best friends at my side
What if everything we want in life
Is on the other side fear?
We would cherish love before it disappears

And I'm still here learning loneliness
And you are still afraid of taking chances
It's tearing me down, it's building me up
All we ever do is learning how to forget

One evening in late September
I'll be packing up my bags
Then I'll go somewhere away from here
And let the good Lord guide my steps
But I know I will return as I have returned before
'Cause I am yet to find what I've been looking for

And I'm still here learning loneliness
And you are still afraid of taking chances
It's tearing me down, it's building me up
All we ever do is learning how to forget
