Let It Lie

You get the summons I'll pay the fine

I know my place you take your time

You take the high road, I'll take the blame

Or take me in your arms, it's all the same

I may never see dear

Say the words you want to hear

I can't always be the one to swallow my pride

If you let your walls down

Maybe you would know how

To leave this alone

Let it lie

Let it lie

I needed less, you wanted more

I shuffled my feet you slammed the door

I was just happy to sit and sing

Oh but darling, you wanted everything

Oh

I may never see dear

Say the words you want to hear

I can't always be the one to swallow my pride

If you let your walls down

Maybe you would know how

To leave this alone

Let it lie

Let it lie

You say I'm selfish, you may be right

And that my songs won't keep me warm at night

You go your way I'll go mine

I know your hurt, but you'll be just fine

Oh

I may never see dear

Say the words you want to hear

I can't always be the one to swallow my pride

If you let your walls down

Maybe you would know how

To leave this alone

Let it lie

Let it lie
