Killing You, Killing Me

Monday evenin'

Lyin' down for bed

I got the day's news

Hangin' in my head

I got too much stuff to do

And so do you

Went down to Houston

To see if I could find

That piece of somethin'

That could ease my mind

I couldn't find the answer

Only found more pain

When it pours, it rains

Honey, can't you see?

It's killin' you, it's killin' me

Got to leave that ball and chain

Livin' that way only brings us pain

Ain' it kinda funny

That you could feel alone

Even when I'm there

Even when I'm home

Handfuls of worry

At our fingertips

Runnin' from your lips

Honey, can't you see?

It's killin' you, it's killin' me

Got to leave that ball and chain

Livin' that way only brings us pain, only brings us pain

Houston never did no good for me

It was just another town with a dead end street

And I swore to myself, this time

I was comin' home

Every time I think I want to be alone

Every time I get a little bit on my own

Will I always regret the things that I never say?

So I turned it around and headed back to you

And I thought about everything I put you through

And how you deserve better

Better than you've ever known

Cross my heart, honey, when I die

I'll have been a better man with you by my side

And I swear, I ain't leavin'

Never leavin' you alone

(Things that I never say)

(So I turned it around, and headed back to you)

(And I thought about everything I put you through)

(And how you deserve better, better than you've ever known)

(Cross my heart, honey, when I die)

(I'll have been a better man with you by my side)

(And I swear, I ain't leavin', never leavin' you alone)
