Let It Lie

You get the summons I'll pay the fine I know my place you can take your time You take the high road, I'll take the blame Or take me in your arms, it's all the same I may never see dear Or say the words you want to hear I can't always be the one to swallow my pride But if you let your walls down Maybe you would know how To leave this alone And let it lie Let it lie I needed less, you wanted more I shuffled my feet you slammed the door I was just happy to sit and sing Oh but darling, you wanted everything Oh I may never see dear Or say the words you want to hear I can't always be the one to swallow my pride But if you let your walls down Maybe you would know how To leave this alone And let it lie Let it lie You say I'm selfish, that may be right And that my songs can't keep me warm at night So you go your way I'll go mine I know you're hurtin', but you'll be just fine Oh I may never see dear Or say the words you want to hear I can't always be the one to swallow my pride But if you let your walls down Maybe you would know how To leave this alone And let it lie Let it lie Let it lie Let it lie
