In My Bones

In My Bones - Ron Pope

I thought I saw an angel calling me across the yard

She said “Baby it's been real but now I'm gone ”

I should've known much better you can't tame something that wild;

When I asked her if she loved me she just smiled

It's my fault I don't care

I can't hate you if you're not here

Once you go never ever turn around

I have sacrificed and then I burned

Oh you gotta live before you learn

I wanted the truth but sometimes the truth hurts

My angel with her dirty wings she used to make me smile

But she kept all of her secrets locked inside

In a place I could not reach her though I tried with all my might

And when I begged for something real she said goodbye

It's my fault I don't care

I can't hate you if you're not here

Once you go never ever turn around

I have sacrificed and then I burned

Oh you gotta live before you learn

I wanted the truth but sometimes the truth hurts

And I am sure I'll be just fine

If I remember she wasn't ever mine

And I am sure I'll be just fine

If I remember she wasn't ever mine

And the truth about the two of us is we don't make no sense

When we made love our love was just pretend

Now I'm trying to forget her though I feel her in my bones

And I wonder if she thinks of me at all

It's my fault I don't care

I can't hate you if you're not here

Once you go never ever turn around

I have sacrificed and then I burned

Oh you gotta live before you learn

I wanted the truth but sometimes the truth hurts

And I wanted the truth but sometimes the truth hurts
