From the recording Heartbound
Lyrics
Before You Hear This Song
V1:
I bet you thought you were clever
You pulled the wool right over my eyes
I bet you thought I would never
But here I am walking right out of your life
V2:
I bet you thought I was patient
While you were working on yourself
But your voice it just made me jaded
Like your Promise that you’d get help
CHORUS
So watch me
slip thru your fingers
Yeah watch me
never lose sleep Over
where you were that night
Yeah watch me
find someone better
Yeah watch me
burn every letter
You wrote when you were wrong
I’ll be over you before you hear this song
V3:
I bet you thought you were charming
You thought you’d never would get caught
I couldn’t wait till the morning
When your caught boy you sure do talk
V4:
You made me think I was crazy
That it was all just in my head
I bet you thought it’d be easy
Keeping our names straight in bed
CHORUS
So watch me
slip thru your fingers
Yeah watch me
never lose sleep Over
where you were that night
Yeah watch me
find someone better
Yeah watch me
burn every letter
You wrote when you were wrong
I’ll be over you before you hear this song
BRIDGE: lean into higher stuff
I’ll be over you before
you even noticed I was leaving
I’ll be over you before
you try to scare me into staying
I’ll be over you before
the neighbors hear all of the screaming
I’ll be gone
and you’ll still be you
CHORUS
So watch me
slip thru your fingers
Yeah watch me
never lose sleep Over
where you were that night
Yeah watch me
find someone better
Yeah watch me
burn every letter
You wrote when you were wrong
I’ll be over you before you hear this song
