Brandi Carlile - When You're Wrong lyrics
[Brandi Carlile - When You're Wrong lyrics]
"Don't go borrowin' trouble
" that's what you used to say
But we don't keep in touch the
Way we used to nowadays
Your eyes are not as bright as
I remember them to be
The light inside's grown dim and that's
Hard for me to see
The creases on your forehead run
Like treads on a tire
The white stripe runnin' through your
Bangs a long twisted spire
You're sweepin' up the floods and
You've been vacuumin' the fires
And you lay down every night
Next to a goddamn liar
You may be here today, but tomorrow
You're a ghost
I guess the most someone can hope for
Is to find a place to lay
Someone to tell your secrets to when
The nights get long and blue
Someone strong enough to lean on
When the roses fall away
Strong enough to love you when you're wrong
Someone strong enough to love you when you're
Wrong
When the day is winding down
My heart abandons me for you
You forgot yourself so long ago and
I wish I could too
But, you live inside a quiet hell
No one can pray away leavin' would be easy
I understand why you stay
You may be here today, but tomorrow
You're a ghost
I guess the most someone can hope for
Is to find a place to lay
Someone to tell your secrets to when
The nights get long and blue
Someone strong enough to lean on
When the roses fall away
Strong enough to love you when you're wrong
Someone strong enough to love you when you're
When you're wrong mm
You'd be wrong if you were thinkin'
That we all don't fade away
Like dew drops in the dawn
Like sun beams through the haze
It's a long way to be sinkin'
Holdin' tightly to the weights
Of the one who pulls you down
While you slowly waste your days
Someone strong enough to love
You when you're wrong
Someone strong enough to love you when you're
Wrong when you're wrong
Ooh ooh when you're wrong
Ooh, ooh
" that's what you used to say
But we don't keep in touch the
Way we used to nowadays
Your eyes are not as bright as
I remember them to be
The light inside's grown dim and that's
Hard for me to see
The creases on your forehead run
Like treads on a tire
The white stripe runnin' through your
Bangs a long twisted spire
You're sweepin' up the floods and
You've been vacuumin' the fires
And you lay down every night
Next to a goddamn liar
You may be here today, but tomorrow
You're a ghost
I guess the most someone can hope for
Is to find a place to lay
Someone to tell your secrets to when
The nights get long and blue
Someone strong enough to lean on
When the roses fall away
Strong enough to love you when you're wrong
Someone strong enough to love you when you're
Wrong
When the day is winding down
My heart abandons me for you
You forgot yourself so long ago and
I wish I could too
But, you live inside a quiet hell
No one can pray away leavin' would be easy
I understand why you stay
You may be here today, but tomorrow
You're a ghost
I guess the most someone can hope for
Is to find a place to lay
Someone to tell your secrets to when
The nights get long and blue
Someone strong enough to lean on
When the roses fall away
Strong enough to love you when you're wrong
Someone strong enough to love you when you're
When you're wrong mm
You'd be wrong if you were thinkin'
That we all don't fade away
Like dew drops in the dawn
Like sun beams through the haze
It's a long way to be sinkin'
Holdin' tightly to the weights
Of the one who pulls you down
While you slowly waste your days
Someone strong enough to love
You when you're wrong
Someone strong enough to love you when you're
Wrong when you're wrong
Ooh ooh when you're wrong
Ooh, ooh
