river

It’s coming on Christmas
They’re cutting down trees
They’re putting up reindeer
And singing songs of joy and peace
Oh I wish I had a river
I could skate away on

But it don’t snow here
It stays pretty green
I’m going to make a lot of money
Then I’m going to quit this crazy scene
I wish I had a river
I could skate away on

I wish I had a river so long
I would teach my feet to fly
Oh I wish I had a river
I could skate away on

I made my baby cry

He tried hard to help me
You know, he put me at ease
And he loved me so naughty
Made me weak in the knees
Oh I wish I had a river
I could skate away on

I’m so hard to handle
I’m selfish and I’m sad
Now I’ve gone and lost the best baby
That I ever had
Oh I wish I had a river
I could skate away on

Oh I wish I had a river so long
I would teach my feet to fly
Oh I wish I had a river
That I could skate away on

I made my baby say goodbye

It’s coming on Christmas
They’re cutting down trees
They’re putting up reindeer
And singing songs of joy and peace
Oh I wish I had a river
I could skate away on

If it’s over,
If you’re really gone this time,
If you left to go and live your life,
Then why can’t I live mine?

If it’s really over,
If your mind is really made,
Then why won’t these memories fade?
Why can’t I get over you?

And why do I still feel your arms around me
Every night as I try to sleep?
And why do I still hear your voice calling out my name
And why do I feel the same?

If it’s over,
Then why is my love still so true?
If it’s over,
Why can’t I get over you?

If it’s really over,
Where do I go from here?
And will this get easier?
When will I be over you?

And why do I still feel your arms around me
Every night as I try to sleep?
And why do I still hear your voice calling out my name
And why do I feel the same?

If it’s over,
Then why is my love still so true?
If it’s over,
Why can’t I get over you?

If it’s over,
Why can’t I get over you?

damaged

One more line
One more time
One more shiny neon sign

One more drink
Yeah I think
If I don’t blink then I’ll be fine

But don’t get too close, you might see
I’m not the boy I used to be, yeah

I’ll throw these dice,
I’ll throw ’em twice
Yeah, it’s nice to change my luck

All this noise
All these toys
All these choices are too much

People say I’ve been around
That I never stood on solid ground
I’m not sure who you had in mind
Or what you came here to find, yeah

Cause I’m not beautiful like you
I’m not useful, I’m just used
A thousand miles, yeah I’ve been stranded
Like a child, I’ve been re-bandaged
Disappointed, disadvantaged
I’m not broken, I’m just
Damaged

Nothing shows
No one knows
That’s how it goes here in my head

Forever strange
I never change
Just rearrange the things I’ve said

I never thought you’d stay this long
I never thought you’d be this strong
You’re everything I’ll never be
I’m not sure what you want with me, ooh yeah

Cause I’m not beautiful like you
I’m not useful, I’m just used
A thousand miles, yeah I’ve been stranded
Like a child, I’ve been re-bandaged
Disappointed, disadvantaged
I’m not broken, I’m just
Damaged

And I didn’t want you to see me this way
Hey yeah, yeah, yeah
I didn’t want you to see me this way
Yeah yeah yeah, yeah-yeah

Cause I’m not beautiful like you
I’m not useful, I’m just used
A thousand miles, yeah I’ve been stranded
Like a child, I’ve been re-bandaged
Disappointed, disadvantaged
I’m not broken, I’m just
Damaged
Yeah, yeah, I’m damaged
