I've been sleeping on the couch

If you wanna call it sleep

Every square inch of this house

Is messy as you left me

Between the sour mash and the barley

And all the bottles in the trash

You'd think I'm a living party

But girl, you're the life of that.

Turns out I needed you

And the leaving you

Wasn't half as smart as I thought it was

'cause my life's in pieces now

And I'm seeing how

What we had was 'bout as good as it comes

And now I know better

'cause without your arms

To hold me together

Baby, I'm falling apart

Baby, I'm falling apart.

Sold us out to buy my freedom

And baby, now I'm paying the price

I swore I had a list of reasons

But that's a list that I can't find

If I'd have built my life around you

I coulda built it to the sky

Swore that I could live without you

But I'd die to have you back tonight.

Turns out I needed you

And the leaving you

Wasn't half as smart as I thought it was

'cause my life's in pieces now

And I'm seeing how

What we had was 'bout as good as it comes

But now I know better

'cause without your arms

To hold me together

Baby, I'm falling apart

Baby, I'm falling apart.

I guess I signed up for the crashing down

I'm just waiting on the rest to happen now.
