Well, I know you want the best for me
But I can't steal your element
Now stow away your problems for a while
Well, maybe I got drunk too many times
And smoked the shame for the hell of it
But your putrid ways of lovin's out of style
Well, help me now, she can't sit still
At least I know I'm never guessing
Bad thoughts become so real, and I can't take this on
Don't turn your back on me
Don't turn your back on me
Love won't take me this far
I'll hold my head in your heart
Our love won't take me this far
I'll hold my head in your heart
Maybe I won't ease your pain but I can hold you through the thick of it
I'll lift you up and show you higher ground
I can teach you how to love or how to win a family argument
Our dinner table's buried underground
Oh, Brother, please, can you help me hide? Our Mama's gone and daddy's stressin'
These lies well, they've shook me to dead and I can't take it on
Don't turn your back on me
Don't turn your back on me
So love won't take me this far
I'll hold my head in your heart
Our love won't take me this far
I'll hold my head in your heart
Our love won't take me this far
I'll hold my head in your heart
Our love won't take me this far
I'll hold my head in your heart
Maybe you don't want the best for me as I can't fight your elegance
Now throw me on these banks and settle down
Maybe I'll see the best in me and be my own damn medicine
Well, I'll pack my things and leave behind this town
Bad, bad news, it won't steal this night
So drink your wine and keep on guessing
And I've seen this once or twice
But we're here now
There's more love for me and you
There's more love for me and you
There's more love for me and you
