Don't Have a Thing

I looked around for a week or so
Like I was looking for a reason to get up and go
And I haven't found nothing but a heart so true
Yes I don't have a thing if I don't have you
I closed a cover on the saddest book
You've been writing your whole life and only if you look
And I've never tasted a tear like this
At the end two lovers die and never kiss
If you're gonna say something
Go on say everything, don't just say anything
If you're gonna love someone
Do it honestly and completely
I saw a moon and it shined so bright
I think I burned my skin in the middle of the night
And they say you can never choose your time
But you can make up your mind, just watch it wind away
And you bet the house on a bullshit hand
You knew what you were doing, you just didn't give a damn
And it's not easy getting down so low
You just lay there in the fire, burning smoke
If you're gonna make something
Make a plan in mind, follow through this life
If you're gonna break something
Break it open wide, and there's nowhere left to hide
Today I saw a temple built
In the time it took to swallow all this guilt
Today I saw a temple built
In the time it took to swallow all this guilt
