Lyrics

Verse 1:
Don't try to dry my tears that you happened to cause
and don't tell me perfections in my many flaws
I've been a little angry since that day you say me too
'Cause I knew you'd do this just as soon as I started lovin' you

Verse 2:
Blinded by a moment that involved a kiss
but baby that wasn't me and not a moment did I miss
"Hey judge, I'm the innocent one, but one thing I'm guilty of
I couldn't take my eyes off the one I wish I didn't love"

Chorus:
Do you think your Jesus weepin' for your Lazarus?
Well there ain't no chance in hell I'd let you heal that death in us
Do you think you're Jesus weeping for your Lazarus
Well there ain't no chance in hell I'd let you heal that death in us

Verse 3:
I said I'd take you home, but you insisted that I go
If I only could have seen tomorow and what I should've known
Your shoe was all I needed to see as you step down from her door
I guess I never filled you up 'cause you were always starvin' for some more

Verse 4:
One Christmas, one ring, and a promise that you made
I want to marry you and my problems they will fade
Goodbye my wedding date. Where is my diamond?
I bet you went and bought a fix, and married that whore of a fling.
