I was a mess
You took my hand
I didn't want nobody else
With a kiss on my cheek
A sigh of relief
I wanted to let myself believe
You knew what to say
To get in my way
I guess I'm a sucker for a dream
So I let down my guard
And I gave you more
Than I knew you would need
Are you the same mistake with a new face
Have I sung this song before
I'm so caught up chasing love songs
Holding on so tight
Till the melody comes out right
I'm so caught up chasing love songs
Holding on till it hurts
Then putting it into words
It doesn't make sense
I'll say it again
I was a mess before you
But I hide it so well
That no one can tell
Which one of us is the messy fool
Is it the fantasy or the mystery
Or another what could be
I'm so caught up chasing love songs
Holding on so tight
Till the melody comes out right
I'm so caught up chasing love songs
Holding on till it hurts
Then putting it into words
So I'll dedicate a record with your name on the front
And you will sing along with every song never knowing what went wrong
I'm so caught up chasing love songs
Holding on so tight
Till the melody comes out right
I'm so caught up chasing love songs
Holding on till it hurts
Then putting it into words
