Lyrics
Written by Mark Croft
It ain’t easy making things so complicated
As she lies across my bed
Kicks her shoes off and hits the clock upon the wall
And stops it right at 4 am
And I could swear I’ve been here before
With a sweet lady looking up at me
With those eyes and those lips and the soles of her feet
Pressing up against me knees
But I’m not doing that no more
I just figured out what hearts are for
And they’re meant for more than keeping a beat
I’m not doin that no more
Because baby I’ve seen this all before
And it ends with alone and begging please…
Forgive me…forgive me
Down the hall I ran like a little chicken running with his head cut off
With the sun rising’ only miles away
Out the door I burst I’m going to shake myself free of this curse
Of this cheating heart and the price I pay
But I’m not doing that no more
I just figured out what hearts are for
And they’re meant for more than keeping a beat
I’m not doing that no more
Because baby I’ve seen this all before
And it ends with alone and begging please…
Forgive me, forgive me
And I can see there’s no one on the streets
And I’m driving alone in the rain
Praying all of the lights staying green
Cause she’s leaving on the morning’ train
But I said, I’m not doing that no more
I just figured out what my heart is for
And it’s meant for more than keeping a beat
Yeah, well, I’m not doing that no more
And baby I’ve seen this all before
And it ends with me alone and begging please
Forgive me…oh girl yeah forgive me
Forgive me…forgive me
