Lyrics

She puts on her makeup and she goes to bed
She's trying to look perfect every chance she gets
She says that she's not and she’ll prove it to me
Well my innocence must be taking its leave
I saw her stage right when she walked on the scene
Black hair tattoos she was any fools dream
Covered in cigarette smoke with a heart on the run
I could tell this is the end but its only just begun
Just begun…
Well, hold me baby give me a reason
Taunt me darling tell me you’re leaving
Were falling apart at the seams
Yeah but now that you know me
You can be lonely next to me
Now that you know me
You can be lonely next to me
Well I know you, and you know me
Like the first shot of tequila and what happened inbetween
Well I’m falling in love with every song she sings
And even more in love with the words she doesn't need
Cause she’s telling a story through the ink on her sleeve
And it’s hard to believe she would listen to me
When she’s drinking from the bottle
She dances on the edge
In the rhythm of a goodbye our love reached its end
Awe its end…
Well, hold me baby give me a reason
Taunt me darling tell me you’re leaving
Were falling apart at the seams
Yeah but now that you know me
You can be lonely next to me
Now that you know me
You can be lonely next to me
