The Floor
I don't know what to say
How do I tell my momma?
She used to think you were great
But now you don't deserve her daughter
Man I thought we were good
Doing better than ever
I couldn't have been more wrong
You never thought about forever, ever
I forgot to look both ways
'Cause I was busy looking ahead
Didn't think I'd have to stop
And feel the somber of a cold bed
You pulled the rug from under me
Had me crying on my knees
Begging you "baby please"
And it was sad
So sad
But I'll pick myself up off the floor
Still haven't told my friends
Honestly I don't know how to
Your sister asks how I've been
You haven't told her the truth
I tried and tried again
But you wanted to stay helpless
Fought to the bitter end
And it'll hurt too much to see you again
I forgot to look both ways
'Cause I was busy looking ahead
Didn't think I'd have to stop
And feel the somber of a cold bed
You pulled the rug from under me
Had me crying on my knees
Begging you "baby please"
And it was sad
So sad
But I'll pick myself up off the floor
Crying on my knees
Crying on my knees
Rug from under me
You pulled the rug from under me
Crying shame on me
Oh it's a crying shame 'cause
I forgot to
And I forgot to look both ways
'Cause I was busy looking ahead
Didn't think I'd have to stop
And feel the somber of a cold bed
You pulled the rug from under me
Had me crying on my knees
Begging you "baby please"
It was sad
So sad
But I'll pick myself up off the floor
How do I tell my momma?
She used to think you were great
But now you don't deserve her daughter
Man I thought we were good
Doing better than ever
I couldn't have been more wrong
You never thought about forever, ever
I forgot to look both ways
'Cause I was busy looking ahead
Didn't think I'd have to stop
And feel the somber of a cold bed
You pulled the rug from under me
Had me crying on my knees
Begging you "baby please"
And it was sad
So sad
But I'll pick myself up off the floor
Still haven't told my friends
Honestly I don't know how to
Your sister asks how I've been
You haven't told her the truth
I tried and tried again
But you wanted to stay helpless
Fought to the bitter end
And it'll hurt too much to see you again
I forgot to look both ways
'Cause I was busy looking ahead
Didn't think I'd have to stop
And feel the somber of a cold bed
You pulled the rug from under me
Had me crying on my knees
Begging you "baby please"
And it was sad
So sad
But I'll pick myself up off the floor
Crying on my knees
Crying on my knees
Rug from under me
You pulled the rug from under me
Crying shame on me
Oh it's a crying shame 'cause
I forgot to
And I forgot to look both ways
'Cause I was busy looking ahead
Didn't think I'd have to stop
And feel the somber of a cold bed
You pulled the rug from under me
Had me crying on my knees
Begging you "baby please"
It was sad
So sad
But I'll pick myself up off the floor
