I have a few words in defense of my youth
|
my guts are feeling an ocean or two
|
I was young I didna¢æ¢ât know what I was stumbling into
|
Ia¢æ¢âve had a lot on my mind and there were so many rules
|
Makes a girl crazy, makes her break a few
|
|
And there I go again
|
Acting like its my fault
|
When youa¢æ¢âre to blame
|
|
It makes me happy
|
To use you a little
|
Just to use you a little
|
To write this song
|
Its the very last letter
|
To an old lover
|
To say I'm glad youa¢æ¢âre gone
|
|
Ia¢æ¢âve got snapshots of things on my mind
|
Though I love the past we dona¢æ¢ât leave it behind
|
But I learned and now I know
|
I dona¢æ¢ât need you coming around
|
One thing I should probably say
|
I got over it all, and surrendered the pain
|
|
Thats the thing about mistakes
|
You never see them coming
|
Until its too late
|
|
It makes me happy
|
To use you a little
|
Just to use you a little
|
To write this song
|
Its the very last letter
|
To an old lover
|
To say I'm glad
|
|
Sacrifice my happiness
|
Its not enough to know
|
Ia¢æ¢âm better off the way it is
|
|
It makes me happy
|
To use you a little
|
Just to use you a little
|
To write this song
|
Its the very last letter
|
To an old lover
|
To say Ia¢æ¢âm glad
|
|
It makes me happy
|
To use you a little
|
Just to use you a little
|
To write this song
|
Ita¢æ¢âs the very last letter
|
To an old lover
|
To say Ia¢æ¢âm glad youa¢æ¢âre gone.
