Chuck Ellis - Life Goes On Lyrics

Wish you told me you weren't sleepy
I would like to have known
If you hold me for the evening
I promise I'll never let go
I promise I'll leave you when I'm done
I know I'll never give up
I know I need you, girl
But I know that I'd rather love nothing at all

When you kiss me I know that you mean it
I know that you got what it takes
And I reasoned when you said I was your demon
I agree that you could be the one to know
But I'm sitting here and it's colder than refrigerated beer
Getting all pissed off that I can't write a damn song
And I can't sing alone without my fear

You're leaving a part of me that I know that I needed
I know that I needed

I wish that I loved you
I wish you weren't such a bitch
So I could forgive you too
You said you saw your therapist
You said he told you that
He thinks that you forgave me too
But I know that he's wrong
Cause I sit with you at the bank
Dividing up our accounts
And you give me the look
That you'd give a man at a stand
With a cheeseburger in his hand

One day I'll laugh, I'll cry
I'll say you were a wife
You were my first
One day I'll know
That life goes on
Even when you feel the worst
But I know already
That this hurts so f*cking goddamn much
It hurts me so much
And I know it's because
I love you and I knew that we
Could make things work

I miss you and I love you
You're my angel
You're my gift from god
And I don't know if he exists
But I know that I miss all of the sweet sweet talks
But I know I'll have more
And I know that life goes on and on and on and on and on
And I know that when you were with me
It didn't feel like it was too long"
