Flipping through the pages of my mind,
The story line you left there has no end
Not even with the passages of time.
You stayed around just long enough to mend your wings
Then you took off in search of bluer skies,
And there’s no way to argue with a silence
You left me without reasons or good-byes.
Holding back the grains against the wind,
Being punished for the hurt another done to you
And loving you too much my only sin.
You’d got a job and I know that you’ll do fine,
Sometimes I think that I might try to find you
But then again I don’t think now’s the time.
So I guess I’ll just stay here with my memories
And stop playing those games that I can’t win,
The question is not, would you ever let me back
The question is, would you ever let me in.
Holding back the grains against the wind,
Being punished for the hurt another done to you
And loving you too much my only sin.
’Cos the real you I couldn’t see,
And that was long before I found out
That you were cheatin’ on me.
Now you’re tellin’ me that if I take you back
You promise you’ll always be true,
Well I only said I was crazy
Not stupid in love with you.
But you were drunk at the time,
An’ I can see when you left me
You were leavin’ the scene of the crime.
You said I was your best friend
Well how come you treat me so bad?
An’ I should have known ’stead of counting on you
I should have counted the beers that you’d had.
And you’re askin’ can we start anew,
Well I only said I was crazy
Not stupid in love with you.
Will make a man twice as shy,
An’ if I should think about takin’ you back
Just give me one reason why
It’s not that I don’t have feelings
Just my sense of survival shows through,
’Cos I only said I was crazy
Not stupid in love with you.
Never stayed in one place like a dry leaf in the wind,
So to find myself settlin’ down was the last thing I expected
Looks like this ol’ town an’ me really have connected.
When I found out this is where belong,
Sometimes when I miss the place where I was raised
I tell myself it’s a good place to be from.
This is where I hang my hat and it’s where I hang my dreams
An’ it fits me like my favorite worn-out jeans,
This place fits me like my favorite worn out jeans.
And along with every detour was a lesson to be learned,
The unknown road I travel on is of my own creation
And the journey means more to me than my destination.
And I’ve found a God that I can trust, the one within myself,
An’ if Jesus wears Levi’s I know this much is true
He buttons up those 501s the same way that I do.
When I found out this is where belong,
Sometimes when I think about the lifestyle I once had
I tell myself I’m glad those times have gone.
This is where I hang my hat and it’s where I hang my dreams
An’ it fits me like my favorite worn-out jeans,
My life fits me like my favorite worn out jeans.
