Keep You

[00:-2.00]sugarland - keep you

[00:-1.00]

we said goodbye. tried her hand at magic.

but we couldn't make us disappear.

not a day goes by i don't wish i had you.

so run away, i'm glad you're still here.

it's a bitter sweet victory.

lovin' the ghost in front of me.

now i can't laugh, can't cry.

and i can't run, can't hide.

what do i gotta do?

what do i gotta do to keep you?

what do i gotta do to keep you from doing this to me?

i wrote a couple of notes.

one in love, one in anger.

they're lying there dying in the dresser drawer.

lived louder than my voice. struggled through a stranger.

he loved me until i loved you even more.

it's a bitter sweet victory.

lovin' someone else who wanted me.

now i can't laugh, can't cry.

and i can't run, can't hide.

you get used to the pain, and numb to the sting

till you can't feel anything.

you tried to explain, but i couldn't hear it.

as if your words were my tears.

flowing freely, warm and quiet.

from the edges of my eyes and my ears.

then all that disappears.

now i can't laugh, can't cry.

and i can't run, can't hide.

now i can't laugh, can't cry.

and i can't run, can't hide.

what do i gotta do?

what do i gotta do to keep you?

what do i gotta do to keep you from doing this to me?
