The Mess You Left Behind Songtext
von Oh Laura

It′s too late to be smart now
I'm all out of clever things to say
You′re gone and I'm alone now
I never meant for things to end this way

But it seems you can't help it
You keep on flirting ′til I can′t see straight
It ain't fair, but I guess you′ve gotta roll with the punches

It's true, I can′t get you off my mind
It's you, and the mess you left behind

Knocked down, I′m on the ropes now
I never knew that love could hurt this bad
My friends say, "You're better off now"
But better off is still a little too sad


But it seems, you can't help it
You keep on going ′til it′s just too late to
Back down, but I guess you gotta roll with the punches

It's true, I can′t get you off my mind
It's you, and the mess you left behind

It′s sad, I keep waiting by the phone
It's me, left here all alone
I′m left here all alone

It's too late to be smart now
I'm all out of clever things to say
It ain′t fair, but I guess you′ve gotta roll with the punches

It's true, I can′t get you off my mind
It's you, and the mess you left behind

It′s sad, I keep waiting by the phone
It's me, left here all alone
I′m left here all alone
