VERSE 1

There won’t be another party
Not another invitation
Come again if you want to
I’m not gonna ask you
I’m not gonna write a fancy note
Or take off your coat

VERSE 2

I’m gonna lie here
Right in this bed
You’ll come and I probably won’t know what you said
But it’s better than nothing
To lie all day here by myself

CHORUS

Because I could cry ten thousand tears
I could drink a hundred beers
But I would still know how it hurts
To be left all by myself
An unread book in an old shelf
And I could blame it on the rain
It should be easy to be untrue for one more refrain
But I choose to blame it on my heart and deal with the pain

VERSE 3

Not another big announcement
Not another quick reunion
From now on you’re in command
I won’t ask for your hand
Or reach out in hopes that you’ll really understand
Come or not I’ll be ok
Because my world and yours are just a wall away
A man without words
Sometimes doesn’t mean it’s less wise

BRIDGE

But it’ll still hurt
Nevermind the quilt on my bed’s brand new
Break the high heel shoes if you have to
What would you
Say if I told you I don’t want this to be the end
Let us be, me and you, once again
Send me all the letters you ripped
Every word of the script
You’ve been plaing since the curtain went up
And let it go down
Let it be over now
I’ll sit and wait for you, wait for you right here
I’ll read a magazine, whille you crack open a beer

CHORUS

Because I could cry ten thousand tears
I could drink a hundred beers
But I would still know how it hurts
To be left all by myself
An unread book in an old shelf
And I could blame it on the rain
It should be easy to be untrue for one more refrain
But I choose to blame it on my heart and deal with the pain
