'Cause when we're travelling down a one-way street And the ones we love aren't at our feet When the timing's wrong, but we want to make a change I give parts of me to those who ask They give back time it never lasts What's mine is yours, what's yours is never mine Don't try to tell me that it's gonna be okay I've spent the night here wishing I could make you stay The only thing that makes me feel like I can belong now Is holding my guitar and write the words to my song 'Cause now there's nothing left to say to you I've been here before, I see straight through Your empty words won't make a heart feel full The door slams shut, the chapters closed A pen to scribe the future no one knows Release my grip and let this go, no Don't try to tell me that it's gonna be okay I've spent the night here wishing I could make you stay The only thing that makes me feel like I can belong now Is holding my guitar and write the words to my song 'Cause my truth is here, and I'll speak it so loud that you will hear My truth is here, and I'll speak it so loud that you will hear My truth is here, and I'll speak it so loud that you will hear My truth is here, and I'll speak it so loud Don't try to tell me that it's gonna be okay I've spent the night here wishing I could make you stay The only thing that makes me feel like I can belong now Is holding my guitar and write the words to my song Don't try to tell me that it's gonna be okay I've spent the night here wishing I could make you stay The only thing that makes me feel like I can belong now Is holding my guitar and write the words to my song No, no
