[Intro]
Oh, baby, here comes the sound

[Verse 1]
Took a train outta New Orleans
And they shot me full of ephedrine
This is how we like to do it in the murder scene
Can we settle up the score?

[Chorus]
If you were here, I'd never have a fear
So go on, live your life
But I miss you more than I did yesterday

[Post-Chorus]
(You're beautiful)

[Verse 2]
Well, I'm a total wreck, and almost every day
Like the firing squad or the mess you made
Well, don't I look pretty walking down the street
In the best damn dress I own?

[Chorus]
If you were here, I'd never have a fear
So go on, live your life
But I miss you more than I did yesterday
You're so far away
So come on, show me how
'Cause I mean this more than words could ever say
[Bridge]
Some might say we are made from the sharpest things you say
We are young and we don't care (Oh, woah-oh)
Your dreams and your hopeless hair (Oh, woah-oh)
We never wanted it to be this way for all our lives
Do you care at all?

[Chorus]
If you were here, I'd never have a fear
So go on, live your life
But I miss you more than I did yesterday
You're so far away
So come on, show me how
'Cause I mean this more than words could ever say

[Outro]
What'd you call me?
Well, there's no way I'm kissing that guy
(What's that? What did you said? Why don't you say it louder?)
Well, come on, come on, come on, come on
(Because I can't hear you)
Oh, yeah
