She smiles at me, then brings coffee to the table
Then pours sugar in my cup, I need her here like she's a drug
Whispers that she wants me, "Then take over my body"
From the Kitchen to the bedroom
You're just like the day i met you
Cold and Calm
That rings not on the hand i know that i left it
She's Packed her bags cause now she's had it

Don't look at me with those eyes I'm still leaving
Oh Yeah the sugar in my cup has lost it's flavor like your touch
With one call to the taxi
She walks right past me
From the stairway to the front door
One goodbye then i was no more...

I've got apologies on napkins with all the things to say
I say "Im Sorry" For a reaction but you're still walking away
And i know it's too late
She's screaming "Dont wait by the bedside, I'm not coming back this time"

Run After her
This could be just like a movie
See me standing in the Rain, How easily she looks right through me
Go inside she's crying...The last 3 years she's been lying
My life's a rainstorm of "I Love You's"
I miss you stepping in the puddles
Drive Away, Go against Fate
You screwed me over like always
Babe one day you will be sorry

I've got apologies on napkins with all the things to say
I say "Im Sorry" For a reaction but you're still walking away
And i know it's too late
She's screaming "Dont wait by the bedside, I'm not coming back this time"

I started playing in the rain
I'm who i am, I'll never change
and i hope lightning strikes me down
I'll show you and this whole town that i'm 1 in a million
I never wanted to fit in any place except your heart but we grew apart
Now rainy days are all i have and i keep dreaming in the past
You keep me awake
No more i can take
and i'm still breathing
Keep Me Breathing
You Keep Me Breathing

    General Comment:To me, this song is about still wanting to be with that person but you know it's never going to work because you something went wrong, you two grew apart, or it just isn't the same anymore. I love this song & the lyrics. Beautifullll.

    General Comment:this is a follow-up song to "let's get married". they were happy and wanted it so much in the begining, but now they saw that they made a mistake taking a chance like that so young. since it was the guy's idea to get married, he's the one who wants to stay in the relationship so badly, but she just can't take it anymore.

    General Comment:My favorite part is where it says
    "and i hope lightning strikes me down
    I'll show you and this whole town that i'm 1 in a million"
    Just like the chances of being struck by lightning is one in a million he's trying to show the girl that hes not like most guys and that he's "one in a million"
    =)

    General Comment:I think this is one of the gratest post brake up songs I have ever hurd. I know alot of guys feel like this when a girl walks out of them,due to the fact i have a lot of close guys firends. I think he has an amazing voice and a way with words. Its very emotional. You can feel his pain in every word he says. You can see the seting with ever word he doesnt say. I love the part were he says "I started playing in the rain
    I'm who i am, I'll never change
    and i hope lightning strikes me down
    I'll show you and this whole town that i'm 1 in a million
    I never wanted to fit in any place except your heart but we grew apart" Its so romantic and diffrent at the same time.. I just love this song.
