Pretty Girl From Michigan - The Avett Brothers

Can you not see

What you've done

You gave your heart away like that

I didn't want to fall

In love

With anyone but you did

I can still hear

The song

The melody behind the kiss you gave me

You were wrong

I was right so I walked away

And left you there

Alone

I got so tired of talking on the telephone

How many times would we say

The words "Goodbye"

I made mistakes

And one

Was telling you that

I'd be there when telling-time had come

I should've said I didn't care

Oh the time I would have saved

If I had been less willing to accomodate

You'd been a little less likely to cry

You go back to the high life

And I'll go back to the low

I should've known

But now I know

There'll be no words

From you

Describing how it felt to go through

What I put you through

It all makes perfect sense

The way you cut

The rope

That kept you dangling from

Such bitter full amounts of hope

I would have cut it too
