Whole Damn Year
Tryna find a way to explain this
Why you can't touch me tonight?
I can feel you're getting impatient
But I really can't let you inside
Bad, how deep the pain is
Or you just couldn't believe
And yes ain't good on the surface
But I'm a mess, I'm a mess underneath
See winter took most of my heart
And Spring punched me right in the stomach
Summer came looking for blood
And by Autumn, I was left with nothing
It took a whole damn year to repair my body
It took a whole damn year
It took a whole damn year to repair my body
It's been a bad five years
Gon' take a long, long year for me to trust somebody
Gon' take a long, long year
Gon' take a long, long year for me to touch somebody
It's been a bad five years
Not tryna do this on purpose
Boy I really wish I could
Don't act like you never heard this
And no you haven't misunderstood
While the others just wouldn't respect it
Don't tell me you as well
I thought we were headed for Heaven
But you're about to take me back to Hell
See Winter took most of my heart
And Spring punched me right in the stomach
Summer came looking for blood
And by Autumn, I was left with nothing
It took a whole damn year to repair my body
It took a whole damn year
It took a whole damn year to repair my body
It's been a bad five years
Gon' take a long, long year for me to trust somebody
Gon' take a long, long year
Gon' take a long, long year for me to touch somebody
It's been a bad five years
It took a whole damn year to repair my body
It took a whole damn year
It took a whole damn year to repair my body
It's been a bad five years
(Spring punched me right in the stomach)
Gon' take a long, long year for me to trust somebody
Gon' take long long year
Gon' take a long, long year for me to touch somebody
It's been a bad five years
Bad to the liver, bad to the bones
Bad to the liver, bad to the bones
Bad to the liver, bad to the bones
It's been a bad five years
Why you can't touch me tonight?
I can feel you're getting impatient
But I really can't let you inside
Bad, how deep the pain is
Or you just couldn't believe
And yes ain't good on the surface
But I'm a mess, I'm a mess underneath
See winter took most of my heart
And Spring punched me right in the stomach
Summer came looking for blood
And by Autumn, I was left with nothing
It took a whole damn year to repair my body
It took a whole damn year
It took a whole damn year to repair my body
It's been a bad five years
Gon' take a long, long year for me to trust somebody
Gon' take a long, long year
Gon' take a long, long year for me to touch somebody
It's been a bad five years

Gon' take a long, long year
Gon' take a long, long year for me to touch somebody

It took a whole damn year
It took a whole damn year to repair my body
It's been a bad five years
(Spring punched me right in the stomach)
Gon' take a long, long year for me to trust somebody
Gon' take long long year
Gon' take a long, long year for me to touch somebody

Bad to the liver, bad to the bones
Bad to the liver, bad to the bones
Bad to the liver, bad to the bones
It's been a bad five years
