Avett Brothers, The - Pretty Girl From Michigan Lyrics






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 accommodate
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 pitiful amounts of hope
I would have cut it too

    Its creepy when a song explains an experience you had so exact to every single lyric.

    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 talkin' 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 accommodate,
    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 word 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 pitiful amounts of hope
    I would have cut it too.
