Song Description

A man take his love for granted and she finally leaves him. However, it takes her leaving, for him to search inside of himself to find just how heartless and uncaring he had become. It took her words, as she was walking out the door, to cut through that barrier.

Lyrics

CUT ME
Written by Paul Bradbury

THERE?S A TIME IN LIFE WHEN YOU GOTTA SAY
THAT IT?S TIME TO LET IT GO
LOOSE THE DREAMS OF A LITTLE BOY
BECAUSE YOU NEVER KNOW
WHEN THE BLUES MIGHT STRIKE YOU HARDER
THAN YOU THOUGHT YOU HAD A RIGHT TO KNOW.

IF I HAD ANOTHER CHANCE WITH YOU
THEN I KNOW I?D MAKE IT RIGHT
HOLD YOU TIGHTLY CLOSE TO ME
KEEP YOU SAFE AND WARM AT NIGHT
DO ANYTHING YOU ASK OF ME
DRY YOUR TEARS AND LOVE YOU FOR MY LIFE

THINGS WE SAY IN ANGER
SEEM TO HAVE A WAY
TO CREATE A WOUND MUCH DEEPER
THAN ANY KNIFE WE?D HIDE AWAY
FORGIVE ME IF I HURT YOU,
I?LL TRY TO MAKE IT UP SOMEWAY


BABY? I CAN STILL REMEMBER
THE WAY IT WAS WHEN I HELD YOU
LYING THERE? I COULD FEEL OUR HEARTS BEAT
TOGETHER MAKING ONE NOT TWO
YOU SAID.. YOUR WORLD REVOLVED AROUND ME
I WAS THE SUN, YOUR ONLY LIGHT
BARING ? A SIDE OF YOU I SEE NOW
WHAT CAN I DO TO MAKE IT RIGHT

A THOUSAND TIMES I THOUGHT ABOUT
THE TEARS I MADE YOU CRY
AND WHEN I LOOK INSIDE OF ME
TO FIND THE ANSWERS WHY
I FIND NO CONSOLATION
AND I KNOW NOW WHY YOU SAID GOODBYE

BABY? I DON?T HAVE THE ANSWERS
TO WHY I DO THE THINGS I DO
YOU WERE THERE? STANDING RIGHT BESIDE ME
WANTING ME TO NOTICE YOU
YOU ASKED.. NOTHING FROM ME - I KNOW
I WAS BLIND ? I WOULDN?T SEE
GONE NOW? MY WORLD LIES HERE IN TATTERS
I STILL FEEL HOW YOUR WORDS CUT ME?

NOTHING FROM ME I KNOW
I WOULDN?T SEE
BUT YOUR WORDS CUT ME
