lyrics

Verse One
I thought I heard you talk to me last night
Maybe it was all in my mind.
I painted no warning, no promises signed,
Led towards you from the greatest of heights.

Build Up Chorus
The Sandman, he tried to beg me wake
I had a date with the devil
My biggest mistake.
If mercy so hollow is all that I have
No man could carry me,
I’m stuck to this bed.

Chorus
All I want is nothing more
Than what you gave or what you sold,
Blame me for a love so cold.
All I need is what there is
And all there is, is what we missed,
Blame me for a love so cold
Blame you for a love so cold.

Verse Two
Spoke to a stillness colored by night,
Gave it a talking to, to rid my pride
If there’s nothing to say for,
Nothing to show,
I swear to be better, I swear to let go.

Build Up Chorus
The Sandman, he tried to salvage my blame
I could not forget it, my love could not save
And if mercy so hollow is all that I have
Please momma carry me, I’m over my head.

Chorus
All I want is nothing that more
Than what you gave or what you sold
Blame me for a love so cold.
All I need is what there is
And all there is, is what we missed.
Blame me for a love so cold,
Blame you for a love so old.


Bridge
Don’t you know how much I love you darling?
Don’t you know how much I care?
I did not mean to bother you lover,
But know I still want you here.

Don’t you know how much I love you darling?
Don’t you know how much I care?
I did not mean to bother you lover,
But know I still want you here.

Chorus
All I want is nothing more
Than what you gave or what you sold
Blame me for a love so cold.
All I want is nothing more
Than what you gave or what you sold
Blame me for a love so cold.
All I need is what there is
And all there is, is what we missed
Blame me for a love so cold,
Blame you for a love so old.
