Taking Back Sunday - Better Homes And Gardens lyrics

When you took that ring off, balled it in your fist Eyes like a smoking gun Surprised at what you did So don't even think for one second your following me in My parents are home, so is my kid Just go on That house that you hate That house that we bought and failed to make When you took that ring off I sat there stunned Parked out in my car Surprised at what you'd done The courage that must have took left me utterly speechless And though it came as no surprise I still couldn't believe it You'll never be happy You'll never be happy But it was all for nothing Yea it was all a waste You held on tight and for dear life But it was all for nothing When you took that ring off Threw it at your feet You didn't say a word Much less look at me The courage that must have took I just couldn't believe it In that moment you were perfect And it made all the bullsh** seem worth it But it was all for nothing Yea it was all a waste You held on tight and for dear life But it was all for nothing Yea it was all a waste You held on tight (Held on tight) And for dear life (For dear life) But it was all for nothing (Held on tight and for dear life) (We held on tight for dear life) (We held on tight) So just go on That house that you hate That house that we bought and failed to make It was all for nothing It was all a waste And now you'll never be happy Oh you'll never be happy Cause it was all for nothing It was all a waste You held on tight and for dear life But it was all for nothing Yea it was all a waste We held on tight (Held on tight) And for dear life (And for dear life) But it was all for nothing (Held on tight and for dear life) (We held on tight) When you took off that ring (For dear life) When you took off that ring (Held on tight)
