Ooh I can pray for the rain but you're never gonna water me
Ooh take a pill for the pain but it's always gonna follow me
Down and out and back again
Spitting whiskey in the wind
Ooh we're a nickel short of red and change we ain't makin it
Ooh we could put it all to bed but there's really no faking it
Hang our hearts on the wall of shame
Who's to blame
If I said I didn't miss you I'd be lying
Now it's over but it's not for lack of trying
No we never ever said goodbye for good
And it didn't end the way that I thought it would
I hope you find another lover and a brand new life
My heart's in the gutter and my hands are tied
Ooh for every lesson to be learned there's a surefire sacrifice
Ooh for every bridge that I burn
Yeah you know I'm gonna burn it twice
Down in ashes to the studs
Just like us
If I said I didn't miss you I'd be lying
Now it's over but it's not for lack of trying
No we never ever said goodbye for good
And it didn't end the way that I thought it would
I hope you find another lover and a brand new life
My heart's in the gutter and my hands are tied
Ooh I could pray for the rain
Ooh I could pray for the rain
I could pray for the rain but you're never gonna water me
Chained by your side
My hands are tied
