[The Verve Pipe - 1229 Sheffield lyrics]
Another day of deflating your face into tears
I shook your mood with the game
And a bottle of beer
The day I fell off of the wagon
You threw up your hands in disgust
Once again you just get the best of me
Remember you loved to be held
How you loved to be touched
And anxiously laughed at my jokes
Just a little too much
When I was so careful of cursing while
You were still nursing your beer
Now it's a shame but I know
There's really no use for
A brand-new convertible
A mile to your parents', a mile to the store
Returning our bottles for 10-cent deposit's
I'll drink us two dollars more
I don't recall anyone placing a
Gun to our heads we traded a trip 'round the
World for a family instead
Our friends were dispersing while you
Were still nursing our boy
And I knew things had changed when
The pet names that you once gave me
We soon gave to the pets
But, I still come when you call
Them just to be sure
Now there's really no use
For a neighborhood cheerleader
A block party president mowing his lawn
Whose cabinet is empty with a
Mind full of nicotine fit's
God I can't make you love me
'Cause, I don't have the strength anymore
I shook your mood with the game
And a bottle of beer
The day I fell off of the wagon
You threw up your hands in disgust
Once again you just get the best of me
Remember you loved to be held
How you loved to be touched
And anxiously laughed at my jokes
Just a little too much
When I was so careful of cursing while
You were still nursing your beer
Now it's a shame but I know
There's really no use for
A brand-new convertible
A mile to your parents', a mile to the store
Returning our bottles for 10-cent deposit's
I'll drink us two dollars more
I don't recall anyone placing a
Gun to our heads we traded a trip 'round the
World for a family instead
Our friends were dispersing while you
Were still nursing our boy
And I knew things had changed when
The pet names that you once gave me
We soon gave to the pets
But, I still come when you call
Them just to be sure
Now there's really no use
For a neighborhood cheerleader
A block party president mowing his lawn
Whose cabinet is empty with a
Mind full of nicotine fit's
God I can't make you love me
'Cause, I don't have the strength anymore
