I've been stuck in my ways I've been rollin' through days Always afraid that things might get better I've been traveling down this road livin' free I suppose All the while feelin' tired and tethered
And I don't understand why I play these games and I trade the truth for lies Cause you were always the one I was looking for babe, it just took time to realize
I've squandered away all the brightest of days Always had trouble keeping on the level And I made a big show of letting you go God knows I was some kind of devil
And I don't understand why I play these games and I trade the truth for lies Cause you're always the one I was looking for babe, it just took time to realize
It's the hardest thing by far, to see who we are And then let the whole thing go
And float like the leaves and hang on the wind Whichever way it blows
Now mistakes it's true I've made more than a few and I'm goin' to make many others And it's hard to see why we go through this sometimes All the things that we do to each other
And I don't understand why I play these games and I trade the truth for lies Cause you were always the one I was looking for babe, it just took time to realize
