Sheryl Crow - The World You Make lyrics

[Sheryl Crow - The World You Make lyrics]

Yesterday's a paper cup
Never seems to hold enough
To quench your thirst
Oh, and time's a faded wedding dress
A bottle and some cigarettes
Can't kill the hurt

She came along and sparked a flame
And now you need someone to
Blame for all your sins
Oh, and sorry's just a waste of time
You're only sad you got caught
Lyin' 'bout where you've been

That you're gonna live in the world you make
You're gonna count every breath you take
You're gonna wish you could
Undo every mistake
Oh, and you're gonna live in
The world you make

Loneliness is not a sin
And love can turn the best
Of friends to enemies
Oh, you wind up in some hotel bar
Peddling a broken heart for company

You're gonna live in the world you make
You're gonna count every breath you take
You're gonna find yourself a hundred
Ways to dull the ache
Oh, but you're gonna live in
The world you make

Whoa, oh oh whoa, oh oh

And love is just a plastic ring
Dangling from a broken string
In a bedroom drawer
You swore an angel could set you free
And if that angel was ever me, not anymore

'Cause you're gonna live in
The world you make
You're gonna count every breath you take
You're gonna realize someday it's
Not too late oh, but you're gonna live in
The world you make
Oh, but you're gonna live in
The world you make
