Lyrics Tennessee Song Pt. 2 - 1997

Tennessee Song Pt. 2

She doesn’t want another one of your letters
Or another midnight call to wake her up
She doesn’t need your empty promises
You just gotta give her time now
And let her forget your love
Let those feelings fade like ashes in the wind
Leave your letters in the rain
You’ll only break her heart.
You know it’s true.
You just gotta give her space now
And let her forget the pain
I’ve been trying to figure you out
Are you ever gonna change?
I’ll be coming back around
Are you ever gonna stay?
If your thoughts begin to tumble like the hills in Tennessee
Don’t waste your song on me
(Because it all just sounds the same)
She doesn’t need to be reminded
Go back to your room and sleep tonight
Or pour another drink and sing a sad, sad song
You just gotta disappear now
And let her forget your lies
I’ve been trying to figure you out
Are you ever gonna change?
I’ll be coming back around
Are you ever gonna stay?
If your body’s getting restless like the windy city breeze
Don’t waste your song on me
(Because it all just sounds the same)
So let me live with what I’ve taken from your eyes
Keep them away from me
Keep them away from me
Because it’s bad enough I’m always by your side
I can’t afford to be the only one on your mind
I’ve been trying to figure you out
Are you ever gonna change?
I’ll be coming back around
Are you ever gonna stay?
If your heart begins to crumble like the streets of New Orleans
Don’t waste your song on me
(Because it all just sounds the same)
I’ve been trying to figure you out
Are you ever gonna change?
I’ll be coming back around
Are you ever gonna stay?
If your soul begins to blacken like the vengeance of the sea
Don’t waste your song on me
