I didn't grab my pen tonight
To wreck your name or start a fight
There's just a couple things I want to say to you
And I know you wouldn't sit down just to hear
So let me spell it out for your deaf ears
It's sad to say but the hearsay's more than true
You're everything that everybody warned about
Who am I to tell you what to do
You're not the type to do what you're told
But let me tell you, you're gonna miss this heart of gold
You seem to prefer bitter endings
The only type that your hands can hold
But let me tell you, you're gonna miss this heart of gold
Can you shut up long enough
To hear what I have to say just once
We're not gonna talk about it later, now is the time
There's nothing everywhere you've been
You run from none to none again
I won't be here tomorrow, but you just might
You're everything that I can live my life without
Who am I to tell you what to do
You're not the type to do what you're told
But let me tell you, you're gonna miss this heart of gold
You seem to prefer bitter endings
The only type that your hands can hold
But let me tell you, you're gonna miss this heart of gold
You're gonna miss this
Yeah, you're gonna miss this face
Gonna miss these kisses
Who am I to tell you what to do
You're not the type to do what you're told
But let me tell you, you're gonna miss this heart of gold
You seem to prefer bitter endings
The only type that your hands can hold
But let me tell you, you're gonna miss this heart of gold
