I drink too much, I smoke too much I laugh at all my own jokes too much I'm hard to tell and quick to touch And easy sayin' goodbye I broke your heart a thousand times With wasted nights and ramblin' rhymes I thought I'd leave you far behind But time just wouldn't let go I walked the streets I kicked the cans Tore down the walls With my two hands And still across my floor you stand Willing to love again Out of all the dreams, in this old world How'd you get so unlucky girl? To find a shell that had no pearl And a man who couldn't find home I feel too much, I protect too much Most times I probably expect too much I spend my life on this broken crutch And you believe I can fly I walked the streets I kicked the cans Tore down the walls With my two hands And still across my floor you stand Willing to love again
