Brandi Carlile - When You're Wrong lyrics

[Verse 1] "Don't go borrowin' trouble," that's what you used to say But we don't keep in touch the way we used to nowadays Your eyes are not as bright as I remember them to be The light inside's grown dim and that's hard for me to see [Verse 2] The creases on your forehead run like treads on a tire The white stripe runnin' through your bangs a long twisted spire You're sweepin' up the floods and you've been vacuumin' the fires And you lay down every night next to a goddamn liar [Chorus] You may be here today, but tomorrow, you're a ghost I guess the most someone can hope for is to find a place to lay Someone to tell your secrets to when the nights get long and blue Someone strong enough to lean on when the roses fall away Strong enough to love you when you're wrong Someone strong enough to love you when you're Wrong [Verse 3] When the day is winding down, my heart abandons me for you You forgot yourself so long ago and I wish I could too But you live inside a quiet hell no one can pray away Leavin' would be easy, I understand why you stay [Chorus] You may be here today, but tomorrow, you're a ghost I guess the most someone can hope for is to find a place to lay Someone to tell your secrets to when the nights get long and blue Someone strong enough to lean on when the roses fall away Strong enough to love you when you're wrong Someone strong enough to love you when you're When you're wrong Mm [Verse 4] You'd be wrong if you were thinkin' that we all don't fade away Like dew drops in the dawn, like sun beams through the haze It's a long way to be sinkin', holdin' tightly to the weights Of the one who pulls you down while you slowly waste your days [Chorus] Someone strong enough to love you when you're wrong Someone strong enough to love you when you're Wrong When you're wrong [Outro] Ooh-ooh When you're wrong Ooh, ooh
