Green

'Cause my arms will die without your hands to live
And your arms will lie parallel to his
And I won't be fooled, as long as I don't hear
That you have been whispering sweet nothings in his ear
And one of these days, he'll screw up
And oh, you'll question a love
And I will be waiting there for you to wonder back
'Cause you deserve more than that
'Cause you deserve more than that
You'll pardon his thinking, all the fights he dragged you through
And I learned of his shortcomings when I got to lie with you
The ways that we differ in ways you can begin
To bring back the green in your eyes, the sadness from your skin
And one of these days, you'll grow up
And oh, you'll question a love
That never fulfilled you from the start
It won't take long to mend a broken heart
Deserves more than that
'Cause it deserves more than that
You'll wait a break and the morning comes
And it feels like a burning, burning touch of the sun
It feels like broken glass, the shot of a gun
One of these days, he'll screw up
And oh, you'll question a love
And I will be waiting there for you to wonder back
And one of these days, you'll grow up
And oh, you'll question a love
That never fulfilled you from the start
It won't take long to mend a broken heart
'Cause you deserve more than that
You deserve more than that
You deserve more than that
