Crossing State Lines

Lyrics

You're an early morning open ended chat
Yeah, I think you might kill me
But I'd love to burn out like that
Then you're stumbling down the street
Wasted
You're the kind of innocence I'd never tasted

Now you're crossing state lines
And I'm trying real hard to get over you
You never wanted me and I sure wanted you to
I never held you tight and I never tasted your lips
Yeah, I thought I found heaven and what kinda hell was this

Yeah, you're talking too loud in a crowded theater
Almost said too much
And you said, "Let's save the rest for later"
You're a black t-shirt end of that bar at 12AM
I'm headed to work hungover
Saying, "I ain't ever drinking again"

Now you're crossing state lines
And I'm trying real hard to get over you
You never wanted me but I sure wanted you to
I never held you tight and I never tasted your lips
Yeah, I thought I found heaven and what kinda hell was this

Well, you came so late, but you left so fast
Well, what coulda been a future is now my past
I'm a memory that with each and every day will fade
I'm sure you forgot me by the time your car hit the interstate

Now you're crossing state lines
And I'm trying real hard to get over you
You never wanted me but I sure wanted you to
You never held me tight and I never tasted your lips
Yeah, I thought I found heaven and what kinda hell was this
