let me tell you my history
i got love letters with purity
i swear this girl was the cure for me
so far away when she broke my heart
what the fuck was i supposed to do?
i told her that i loved her
she said it back and i believed her
i wear my heart on my sleeve
i thought maybe you loved me
mama said you were perfect
where did i go wrong? what did i do?
all i got is this whiskey and the thought of you
mama said you were perfect
where did i go wrong? what did i do?
all i got is whiskey and the thought of you
i'm not the dude you curl up and talk to
committed to nothing but tunes
a rough time with my ex girlfriend
the walls go up when my heart's broke in
bomb bitch ain't for the talking
i wear my heart on my sleeve
i thought maybe you loved me
mama said you were perfect
where did i go wrong? what did i do?
all i got is this whiskey and the thought of you
mama said you were perfect
where did i go wrong? what did i do?
all i got is this whiskey and the thought of you
i can't be your superhero anymore
no more lifting you above my bed
but i can say you're not still in my head
in my mind and in my head
i'm thinking back on memories we had
white wine under street lights
warm gin in my water bottle
cigarettes up in my ashtray
those metal bars on your single bed
i never met a girl like you
i never met a girl like you
i wonder why did i ever leave
i thought maybe you loved me
mama said you were perfect
where did i go wrong? what did i do?
all i got is this whiskey and the thought of you
mama said you were perfect
where did i go wrong? what did i do?
all i got is whiskey and the thought of you
