| Things have been so crazy and hectic
|
| I shoulda gotten back by now
|
| But you know how much I wanted to make it
|
| It’s probably better anyhow
|
| So if you gotta go
|
| If there’s anything I should know
|
| If the spotlight makes you nervous
|
| If you’re looking for a purpose
|
| You put the tea in the kettle and light it
|
| Put your hand on the metal and feel it
|
| But do you even feel it anymore?
|
| I remember when you thought I was joking
|
| Now I’m off singing karaoke
|
| Further than I’ve ever been
|
| So if you gotta go
|
| If there’s any way I can help
|
| Isn’t it ironic that the girl I want to marry is a wedding planner
|
| That tells me my life is too much and then moves to Atlanta
|
| Damn, of all the places you could go
|
| I just thought you’d choose somewhere
|
| That had somebody that you know
|
| I’m always up too late, I worry 'bout you there alone
|
| In that place you call your home, warm nights and cold Patron
|
| I hope you don’t get known for nothing crazy
|
| Cause no man ever wants to hear those stories bout his lady
|
| I know they say the first love is the sweetest
|
| But that first cut is the deepest
|
| I tried to keep us together, you were busy keeping secrets
|
| Secrets you were telling everybody but me
|
| Don’t be fooled by the money, I’m still just young and unlucky
|
| I’m surprised you couldn’t tell
|
| I was only trying to get ahead
|
| I was only trying to get ahead
|
| But the spotlight makes you nervous
|
| And you’re looking for a purpose
|
| I was only trying to get ahead
|
| I was only trying to get ahead
|
| But the spotlight makes you nervous |
