Pretty Girl From Michigan Songtext
von The Avett Brothers

Can you not see what you′ve done?
You gave your heart away like that
I didn't want to fall in love
With anyone but you did

I can still hear the song
The melody behind the kiss you gave me
You were wrong
I was right so I walked away

And left you there alone
I got so tired of talking on the telephone
How many times would we say the words "Goodbye"?


I made mistakes
And one was telling you that I′d be there when telling-time had come
I should've said I didn't care

Oh, the time I would have saved
If I had been less willing to accomodate
You′d been a little less likely to cry

You go back to the high life
And I′ll go back to the low
I should've known
But now I know

There′ll be no word from you
Describing how it felt to go through what I put you through
It all makes perfect sense

The way you cut the rope
That kept you dangling from such pitiful amounts of hope
I would have cut it too, yeah!
