Ron Pope - In My Bones Lyrics

I thought I saw an angel, calling me across the yard
She said:baby, it's been real, but 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.

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 then I burned
Oh, you gotta live before you learn
I wanted the truth, but sometimes the truth hurts

My angel with her dirty wings, she used to make me smile
But she kept all of her secrets locked inside
In a place I could not reach her, though I tried with all my might
And when I begged for something real she said goodbye

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 then I burned
Oh, you gotta live before you learn
I wanted the truth, but sometimes the truth hurts

And I am sure I'll be just fine
If I remember she wasn't ever mine
And I am sure I'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
Now I'm trying to forget her, though I feel her in my bones
And I wonder if she thinks of me at all.

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 then I burned
Oh, you gotta live before you learn
I wanted the truth, but sometimes the truth hurts
And I wanted the truth, but sometimes the truth hurts
