Sudden Stop |
| I got a «Dear John» letter in the mail just the other day |
| I opened it up and there wasn’t much left to say |
| A bus ticket, plane ticket, train ticket |
| There’s about a hundred ways to leave |
| It ain’t her goodbye, it’s her gone that’s killin' me |
| 'Cause I’m here to tell you |
| If I learned one thing about love |
| It ain’t the fall that gets you |
| It’s the sudden stop that does |
| Well I wasn’t gonna take this broken heart laying down |
| So I jumped up, cranked up |
| And headed for the lights of town |
| In a bright red drop-dead tight dress she said |
| «Honey, come on in» |
| And head over high heels, here I go again, haha |
| 'Cause I’m here to tell you |
| If I learned one thing about love |
| It ain’t the fall that gets you |
| It’s the sudden stop that does |
| Woo |
| Red light, green light, seat belt real tight |
| I’m headed straight for the wall |
| Goin' 90 miles an hour, well, I’m gonna risk it all |
| 'Cause I’m here to tell you |
| If I learned one thing about love |
| It ain’t the fall that gets you |
| It’s the sudden stop |
| It ain’t the fall at all |
| It’s that sudden stop |
| It ain’t the fall that gets you |
| It’s the sudden stop, that does |
