lyrics

You creep into the darkness
Where I sleep surrounded by hearts
And if the world knows
Well it sure isn't letting on

Whatever was here
Now is gone
Sometimes I wish
That I was strong
Like you

Who carries the world on your shoulders
More beautiful now that you're older
She'll never forget what he told her

Go on your way and don't look back
Hearts only break when they're under attack
I'll still be here out in the tool shack
You can count on that
Look me up when you come back
Look me up when you come back

Go to school
And learn a lot
Find a boy
Who's gonna make you hot
Take some time
To tie the knot
Life is sweet
You've only got one shot

Now look at you
With the world on your shoulders
More beautiful now
That you're older

Go on your way and don't look back
Hearts only break when they're under attack
I'll still be here out in the tool shack
You can count on that
Look me up when you come back
Look me up when you come back

You creep
Into the darkness
Where I sleep
Surrounded by hearts
And if the world knows
Well it sure isn't letting on

Whatever was here
Now is gone
Sometimes I wish
That I was strong
Like you

Go on your way and don't look back
Hearts only break when they're under attack
I'll still be here out in the tool shack
You can count on that
Look me up when you come back
Look me up when you come back
Look me up when you come back
Look me up when you come back
