lyrics

(He said)
Driving down to my baby's house,
I'm hoping there's nothing there to find.
But, there ain't nothing there that can ease this worried mind.
Leaning into a truck window, I see my baby from behind.
There are soft round curves and misery in my mind.

Heartbreak is a two– part word, one half loves, the other half hurts.
Half of my heart is a heart torn in half and half of my heart is worse.

(She said)
I didn't mean to cheat on soft cotton sheets,
I didn't mean to look into his eyes,
But you didn't look in mine, if you had, hurt is what you’d find.
One lonely bird in a lonely sky, one question I didn't ask.
One heart in her chest feels his chest on her back.

I don't want to be worse.
