One For The Road

Sit down baby
I've got some things that you need to hear
It's been building inside me
And there's some air that we need to clear

What if I told you that I'm not the man that you think I am
Would you listen or would I only hear the door behind you slam
In my face as I watched you walking out of my world
Knowing it'd be the last day that I could call you my girl
And I broke your heart

There's nobody but me left to blame
And the face in my mirror won't be the same
I'll sit alone hoping you're okay but how will I know
You say my eyes will never see you again after you go

I love you but I broke it
And the cracks are starting to show
So before you go here's one for the road

I've been searching for a way to say that you should move on
And I think we both know that you'd be better off after you're gone
You'll find somebody that looks at you the way you used to look at me
And we both know it's been awhile since I was the man you used to see

I'm so tired of walking around
Knowing I'm the one that let us down and I broke your heart

There's nobody but me left to blame
There was a fire between us but I blew out the flame
And ever since we've both been trying to hang on
But I think we both know that the fire is gone

Our love was a garden but it seems some weeds have grown
All the flowers have wilted and the seeds have all been sown
So before we go here's one for the road
