In My Bones - Ron Pope

I thought I saw an angel

Calling me across the yard

She said 'baby, it’s been real

Now I’m gone'

I should’ve known much better

You can’t tame something that wild

When I asked her if she loved me

She just smiled

But it’s my fault

I don’t care

I can’t hate you if you’re not here

Once you go, never ever turn around

I have sacrificed and I burned

Oh, you gotta live before you learn

And I wanted the truth but sometimes the truth hurts

And my angel with her dirty wings

She used to make me smile

She kept all of her secrets locked inside

In a place I could not reach her

Though I tried with all my might

When I begged for something real she said 'goodbye'

And it’s my fault

I don’t care

I can’t hate you if you’re not here

Once you go, never ever turn around

I have sacrificed and I burned

Oh, you gotta live before you learn

And I wanted the truth but sometimes the truth hurts

And I am sure it’ll be just fine

If I remember, she wasn’t ever mine

And I am sure it’ll be just fine

If I remember, she wasn’t ever mine

And the truth about the two of us

Is we don’t make no sense

When we made love, our love was just pretend

And now I’m trying to forget her

The way I feel her in my bones

And I wonder if she thinks of me at all

But it’s my fault

I don’t care

I can’t hate you if you’re not here

Once you go, never ever turn around

I have sacrificed and I burned

Oh, you gotta live before you learn

And I wanted the truth but sometimes the truth hurts

And I wanted the truth but sometimes the truth hurts
