I've tried to make the most out of a hopeless situation
|
But turning something wrong into something right
|
But everything I do brings out the worst in you
|
Seems we always wind up gettin' in a fight
|
I tell our friends again it's just a phase we're going through
|
It's the kind of trouble you know that won't ever last
|
But the farther down I go and the more I think I know
|
We've headed down a rough and rocky path
|
So if you love me like you say you really love me why you wanna put me to the test
|
Yeah if you don't want me it won't disappoint me I just wanna give my heart a rest
|
I try to rise above the petty gossip of this town
|
I try to keep my nose clean and my eyes open wide
|
But people talk so much it's hard to stay in touch
|
With the way you really feel down deep inside
|
Oh the sound of rolling thunder keeps on calling out to me
|
Way out on the highway is the place I wanna be
|
It's hard to make it work when I feel just like a jerk
|
And the past's the only future that I see
|
So if you love me like you say...
|
Yeah I just wanna give my heart a rest
|
Yeah I just wanna give my heart a rest
