All Going Wrong

People don’t leave
When everything’s goin’ fine fine fine
So you better believe
If she’s leaving it’s all goin’ wrong
And it’s been goin wrong for a while
You gotta tell a woman when she’s on your mind
You gotta let a man know when he’s crossed a line
You gotta try a little harder cause a good love is hard to find
People don’t leave
When everything’s goin’ fine fine fine
So you better believe
If she’s leaving it’s all goin’ wrong
And it’s been goin’ wrong for a while
When a song is over you should say goodbye
And when a love is dying you should let it die
You shoulda tried a little harder
But you didn’t now you’re out of time
People don’t leave
When everything’s goin’ fine fine fine
So you better believe
If she’s leaving it’s all goin’ wrong
And it’s been goin’ wrong for a while
Yeah it’s all goin’ wrong and it’s been goin’ wrong for a while
Yeah it’s all gone wrong

When You Do It Right

Even though you’ve embraced life as a failure
Every burden you bear’s a cross to climb on
You’re making it hard to explain
To my friends what we’ve still got left in common
You’re looking through me like there’s nobody there
I’m making an effort but you don’t care
Everything you could break has been broken
Anything you got left ain’t worth the trouble
I’ve been fooling around with the notion:
Maybe this is a phase that’ll soon be over
In the meantime, I’ll try to pretend
Whatever you used to be, you could be again
When you do it right, you do it just like I told ya
When you do it right, you do it just like I showed ya
If you ever get lost, baby,
Remain where you are until I come and find you
No matter the cost, or the pain,
No matter what kind of ghosts you drag behind you
It’s a blessing that memories fade
But that don’t mean you need to throw ‘em away
When you do it right, you do it just like I told ya
When you do it right, you do it just like I showed ya

If you never loved me
Why did I love you? How could I love you?
If I never loved you
What’s the goddamn point of all this crying?
I’m falling apart, falling in and out of love again
And I can’t be convinced
That I won’t be with you at summer’s end
I could try, I could try to tell the truth
But the truth is simple
And it might be better
But I doubt that it would make much difference
I’ve taken what’s left of reason and buried it way down
You’re staying or you’re leaving, it all feels the same now
I’m falling apart, falling in and out of love again
And I can’t be convinced
That I won’t be with you at summer’s end
I should’ve known it
I should’ve seen the signs darkening your eyes

I think you’re too drunk to walk home with me
You’ll crack your skull on icy pavement
People die almost all of the time
I know, I know, I know, it’s not important
Well I know it’s late, and you’re lonely,
And you’re worried that you’re wasting your time
But I know a place we could go if you’d stop crying
Take some advice from the books you’ve read,
The Christmas cards from Stalin’s daughter
Hello sun, you’ve been gone too long
I’m alright, I’m feeling better
When the winter’s long
When the winter’s long
Yeah I know it’s late, and you’re lonely,
And you’re worried that you’re wasting your time
But I know a place we could go if you’d stop crying
I know it’s late, and you’re lonely,
And you’re worried that you’re wasting your time
But I know a place we could go if you’d stop crying
I know a place

Hard Day
02:36

No one gets whatever they want
Or what they deserve
Hoping it will turn out alright
But somehow it always gets worse
Rain’s blowing in; it’s gonna be a hard day, a hard day
And never again is what I feel always, always
I didn’t want to see you this way
Didn’t want to see you at all
I left when I should have stayed
And I’ll keep knocking but I know no one’s home
Rain’s blowing in; it’s gonna be a hard day, a hard day
Never again is what I feel always, always

Better Times Ahead
02:56

When you left the sun was shining
All the leaves on the trees outside
Were green and thriving in the heat
A warm summer dream
Everything you thought you needed
Everything that’s come between us
All these things’ll fade away
So write ‘em down and keep ‘em safe
And keep on looking for the bright side
Keep on playing through the pain
I’m probably just stupid
If it’s any consolation
I don’t know if there’s better times ahead
Come back when the cold wind’s blowing
When the river’s overflowing
Come back when the skies are gray
It still hurts, but that’s OK
Just keep on looking for the bright side
Keep on playing through the pain
I’m probably just stupid
If it’s any consolation
I don’t know if there’s better times ahead
Keep on looking for the bright side
Keep on believing things’ll change
I’m probably just stupid
If it’s any consolation
I don’t know if there’s better times ahead

Somewhere in the world there’s a boy without a girl
That girl was me before I died
Every now and then I check in on him
To see how things are goin’
He’s still sad; isn’t that nice!
I hope he’s sad forever and a day
I hope he cries until he meets me at these pearly gates
I hope he’s sad forever and a day
And another day
Things are going great, I don’t mean to bellyache
Or complain, so I won’t
Then again sometimes I kinda wish
I’d died with all my friends
Instead of dying all alone!
I hope he’s sad forever and a day
I hope he cries until he meets me at these pearly gates
I hope he’s sad forever and a day
And another day
Angel’s telling me to come inside
I tell him I’m doing fine
He says I’m in denial, I might be waiting for a while
Reckon I’ll be waiting for a while
I’m gonna be sad forever and a day
If he don’t show up here and meet me at these pearly gates
Our love will last forever and a day
And another day

Taking a Break
03:22

I’m taking a break
From the woman that I swore I’d love until
Death departed one, the other, or us both
A couple of days
Maybe a week to get my head screwed back on straight
Turn the corner, turn the page, turn it off for a while
Enough about me, what I’m going through
All this talking and I’m killing the mood
Let’s get down to doing what we came to do
I’m down on my knees
Overwhelmed by just how fast the feeling fades
Every great adventure must come to an end
I’m waking up cold
Waking up shaking in this empty motel bed
But I know I won’t be lonely for too long
I’m heading home, she’s waiting for me
She knows a man’s just gotta be free
Every caged bird needs a time to spread its wings
We don’t have to cry, don’t need to fight
We can let bygones slip on by
My girl knows when I come home it’ll be alright
We don’t have to cry, don’t need to fight
We can let bygones slip on by
My girl knows when I come home it’ll be alright

Go It Alone
03:12

Who cares what you were told when you were younger
It feels so right to say goodbye
There’s no one meant for no one for forever
There’s only someone for tonight
Making love you make yourself a prison
So if you need to love somebody
Make sure that somebody’s you
And go it alone
Running away all summer long
There’ll come a day when you can’t go on
And then you’ll stay who you are
Maybe for a while you feel like living
So find someone and fool around
And when you’re done with love and there’s no reason to stay
Hit the road right out of town
Leave behind those things you never needed
You don’t have to settle for it
You can start all over again
And go it alone
Running away, as good as gone
There’ll come a day when you can’t go on
And then you’ll stay who you are

Double Play
03:07

Did you ever find yourself on the field
Between bases, got caught trying to steal
I went down swinging, took my eye off the ball
And I don’t blame you; it’s nobody’s fault
Been a year since the divorce
And we’ve remained pretty close
Maybe I’m going insane:
I’m thinking ‘bout a double play
Double play!
Bases loaded, I might just walk
Don’t wanna strike out with no time on the clock
Get off the diamond, get back in the ring
Come on, admit it: we make a pretty good team
Scratched that seventh inning itch
Now I’m looking for a pinch hit
Ain’t gonna blow another save
I’m calling for a double play
Double play!
I think we could be more than friends, again
Let’s go for the win
Double play…
And now we’re at the warning track
Score is tied, ain’t no coming back
Am I making a mistake
Getting caught up in this double play
Double play!
