I'll fix it myself I don't need
Anyones hand helping me
I'm a clever boy, I'll figure it out wait and see
But you've been away for so long
Been writing you all these sad songs
Just hoping you'll come back and forgive me for doing you wrong
The teary tea kettle and sink
The dining room chairs cry and creak
Don't you worry I'll fix it you can count on me
But you've been away for so long
Been writing you all these sad songs
Just hoping you'll come back and forgive me for doing you wrong
You know I could build you anything you could ask for
Build you a house with a garden and a swing on the porch
But that bridge burned down five years ago across the Mississippi
Theres nothing left and I can't fix that
Not on my own
Cause you've been away for so long
Been writing you all these sad songs
Just hoping you'll come back and forgive me for doing you wrong
Yeah you've been away for so long
Been writing you all these sad songs
Just hoping you'll come back and forgive me for doing you wrong
I'll strip the windows painted shut
And sweep the chimney clear of soot
If you help me breathe some life into it
