The Mess You Left Behind (Alternate Version)
It's too late, to be smart now
I'm all out of clever thing to say
You're gone, and I'm alone now
I never meant for things to end this way
But it seems you can't help it
You keep on flirting till I can't see straight
It ain't fair, but I guess you've gotta roll with the punches
It's true
I can't get you off my mind
It's you
And the mess you left behind
It's sad
I keep breathing by the phone
It's me, left here all alone
Left here all alone
Knocked out, I'm on the ropes now
I never knew that love could hurt this bad
My friends say, you'd better off now
But better off is to little too sad
But it seems, you can't help it
You keep going till it's just too late to
Back down
But I guess you've got to roll with the punches
It's true
I can't get you off my mind
It's you
And the mess you left behind
It's sad
I keep breathing by the phone
It's me, left here all alone
Left here all alone
It's too late, to be smart now
I'm all out of clever thing to say
It ain't fair
But I guess you gotta roll with the punches
It's true
I can't get you off my mind
It's you
And the mess you left behind
It's sad
I keep breathing by the phone
It's me, left here all alone
Left here all alone
