about

lyrics

I’d wake up a white-tail fawn, and I’d go to sleep a bear,
and still you wouldn’t tell me you care.
So I went to sleep a lion, and though I woke up a lamb,
you still won’t call me your man.

And you know I tried to push and find just one thing to hold on,
I just don’t know what I’m doing wrong.

When I’d shake up the Blue Ridge cold and dive down through every drain,
you still wouldn’t tell me your name.
So I bent my tongue and lied and though I spoke your favourite words,
you still won’t let me call you my girl.

And you know I tried to push and find just one thing to hold on,
I just don’t know what I’m doing wrong.

Well someone somewhere said sometimes it won’t be what you want,
so open up the cage around your heart.
And though I snored and roared in doleful tones all the love I had in song,
you still left me, connected my heart to machines as I cried,
“Please, tell me what I’m doing wrong.”

Oh, I cried, “Tell me what I ever, ever, ever did wrong.”
Yes, I cried, but you still wouldn’t tell me what I did wrong.
I still don’t know what I ever, ever, ever, did wrong.
I still don’t know what I ever did wrong.
