Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I wish you were a pack of cigarettes
'Cause you would've come with a warnin'
Before I let you steal my breath
I would've known how bad you were for me
[Verse 2]
Some people lie, some people trust
Some people hide, what they're made of
[Verse 3]
If you would've been lit up like a marquee sign
Could've saved myself some wasted time
From the minute I found you
If it'd been written out in black and white
Maybe then I would've told my mind
Not to get wrapped around you
I should've known it from the start
That you were only here to break my heart
[Verse 4]
If you had just been tequila
I would've known when to stop
Would've been so easy to leave ya
Never even would've taken a shot
[Verse 5]
But people lie
And people trust
And people hide
What they're made of
[Verse 6]
If you would've been lit up like a marquee sign
Could've saved myself some wasted time
From the minute I found you
If it'd been written out in black and white
Maybe then I would've told my mind
Not to get wrapped around you
I should've known it from the start
You were only here to break my heart
[Verse 7]
If I could've seen right through ya
Known ya before I knew ya
[Verse 8]
If you would've been lit up like a marquee sign
Could've saved myself some wasted time
From the minute I found you
If it'd been written out in black and white
Maybe then I would've told my mind
Not to get wrapped around you
I should've known it from the start
You were only here to break my heart
Yeah, you were only here to break my heart
[Verse 9]
(Lit up like a marquee sign) Whoa, oh, oh
(Lit up like a marquee sign) Whoa, oh, oh
(Lit up like a marquee sign) Whoa, oh, oh, oh, yeah
(Lit up like a marquee sign) Whoa, oh, oh
