Albatross - Tennessee lyrics

We carved our names into a tree Just to see how it could be But it was nothing but a scratch Another place for cars to crash I lost my heart in Tennessee Beggin' eyes bendin' knees And it was more than just a scratch You carved your name across my back I made a promise to myself Not to trust nobody else I broke it soon as I got home I cannot do this on my own I'll never mess you around No I'll never mess you around No I'll never mess you around But I will let you down I found a friend in Montréal She hung her posters on my wall And I could use another friend Won't you stay until the end? Cause I'll never mess you around No I'll never mess you around I'll never mess you around But I will let you down We carved our names into a tree Just to see how it could be But it was nothing but a scratch Another place for cars to crash I made a promise to myself Not to trust nobody else I broke it soon as I got home I cannot do this on my own I cannot do this on my own
