Well, I know you want the best for me

But I can't steal your element

Now stow away your problems for a while

Well, maybe I got drunk too many times

And smoked the shame for the hell of it

But your putrid ways of lovin's out of style

Well, help me now, she can't sit still

At least I know I'm never guessing

Bad thoughts become so real, and I can't take this on

Don't turn your back on me

Don't turn your back on me

Love won't take me this far

I'll hold my head in your heart

Our love won't take me this far

I'll hold my head in your heart

Maybe I won't ease your pain but I can hold you through the thick of it

I'll lift you up and show you higher ground

I can teach you how to love or how to win a family argument

Our dinner table's buried underground

Oh, Brother, please, can you help me hide? Our Mama's gone and daddy's stressin'

These lies well, they've shook me to dead and I can't take it on

Don't turn your back on me

Don't turn your back on me

So love won't take me this far

I'll hold my head in your heart

Our love won't take me this far

I'll hold my head in your heart

Our love won't take me this far

I'll hold my head in your heart

Our love won't take me this far

I'll hold my head in your heart

Maybe you don't want the best for me as I can't fight your elegance

Now throw me on these banks and settle down

Maybe I'll see the best in me and be my own damn medicine

Well, I'll pack my things and leave behind this town

Bad, bad news, it won't steal this night

So drink your wine and keep on guessing

And I've seen this once or twice

But we're here now

There's more love for me and you

There's more love for me and you

There's more love for me and you
