Carrie Underwood - Backsliding Lyrics






I'm not suppose to be thinking 'bout you and laying here in this bed
Too much has gone wrong and we should move on, that's what we both said

There's a million reasons why we said goodbye
Why we couldn't try, couldn't fight for it anymore
Put your ring in the back of the dresser drawer
And we closed that door

So why am I 2 A.M. pickin' up my phone and you're standin' in my porch light
Backsliding
Wearin' your old t-shirt in the mornin', it feels so right
Backsliding
We say we won't, but then we do
The same old thing fallin' right back in, say it's gonna be the last time
Backsliding, I'm backsliding
Backsliding, I'm backsliding

Well, I heard that you've been hangin' around with someone new
Yeah, word gets around in such a small town, bet you heard I'm seein' someone too

There's a million reasons why we should be happy
Not lookin' back, livin' in the past anymore
But they ain't addin' up, I guess they ain't enough
'Cause here I am

At 2 A.M. pickin' up my phone and you're standin' in my porch light
Backsliding
Wearin' your old t-shirt in the mornin', it feels so right
Backsliding
We say we won't, but then we do
The same old thing fallin' right back in, say it's gonna be the last time
Backsliding, I'm backsliding
Backsliding, I'm backsliding

And we keep pushing, pulling back, sliding
Pushing, pulling, slipping back, sliding
I keep asking myself, keep asking myself
Why do I need you and nobody else?
If we're not meant to be then why do we keep backsliding?

And why am I 2 A.M. pickin' up my phone and you're standin' in my porch light
Backsliding
Wearin' your old t-shirt in the mornin', it feels so right
Backsliding
We say we won't, oh but then we do, yeah
The same old thing fallin' right back in, say it's gonna be the last time
Backsliding, I'm backsliding
Yeah, yeah
I'm backsliding, yeah
Backsliding

Why do we keep backsliding?
I can't help it, I'm backsliding
I need you, I'm back sliding
Why do we keep backsliding?
Backsliding
Backsliding
Backsliding
Backsliding

    Beautifully sung by Carrie, but the whole composition of this song has sam hunt written all over it. Like the song "speakers" or "breakup in a small town". You might as well have done a duet with sam. Everybody is copying Sam these days.
