Girls Like Me (From Songland) - Martina McBride

Paper bags and plastic hearts All our belongings in shopping carts It's goodbye, but we got one more night Let's get drunk and ride around And make peace with an empty town We can make it right Throw it away, forget yesterday We'll make the great escape And we won't hear a word they say They don't know us anyway Watch it burn, let it die 'Cause we are finally free tonight Tonight will change our lives It's so good to be by your side We'll cry, but we won't give up the fight We'll scream loud at the top of our lungs And they'll think it's just 'cause we're young But we'll feel so alive Throw it away, forget yesterday We'll make the great escape And we won't hear a word they say They don't know us anyway Watch it burn, let it die 'Cause we are finally free tonight All of the wasted time The hours that were left behind The answers that we'll never find They don't mean a thing tonight Throw it away, forget yesterday We'll make the great escape We won't hear a word they say They don't know us anyway Throw it away, forget yesterday We'll make the great escape And we won't hear a word they say They don't know us anyway Throw it away, forget yesterday We'll make the great escape And we won't hear a word they say They don't know us anyway Watch it burn, let it die 'Cause we are finally free tonight

I got your runaway smile in my piggybank baby Gonna cash it right in for a new Mercedes You were worth the hundred thousand miles But you couldn't stay awhile I got your little brown shirt in my bottom drawer baby And your little white socks in the top drawer You were always leaving your shit around And gone without a sound Yeah I'm the first to fall And the last to know Where'd you go? Now I'm heels over head I'm hangin' upside-down Thinkin' how you left me for dead California bound I got a first class ticket to a night all alone And a front row seat up right by the phone 'Cause you're always on my mind And I'm running out of time I've got your hair on my pillow And your smell in my sheets And it makes me think about you With the sand in your feet Is it all you thought it'd be? You mean everything to me But I'm the first to fall And the last to know Where'd you go? Now I'm heels over head I'm hangin' upside-down Thinkin' how you left me for dead California bound And when you hit the coast I hope you think of me And how I'm stuck here with the ghost Of what we used to be You're burnin' bridges baby (burnin' bridges) Make your wishes Yeah you're burnin' bridges baby (burnin' bridges) Make your wishes You're burnin' bridges baby (burnin' bridges) Make your wishes Yeah you're burnin' bridges baby (burnin' bridges) Make your wishes You're a chance taker, heartbreaker Got me wrapped around your finger Chance taker, heartbreaker Got me wrapped around your finger I got your runaway smile in my piggybank baby Gonna cash it right in for a new Mercedes If I drive a hundred thousand miles Would you let me stay a while? Now I'm heels over head I'm hangin' upside-down Thinkin' how you left me for dead California bound And when you hit the coast I hope you think of me And how I'm stuck here with the ghost Of what we used to be Now I'm heels over head I'm hangin' upside-down Thinkin' how you left me for dead California bound And when you hit the coast Maybe you'll finally see And then you'll turn it all around And you'll come back to me

Today is a winding road That's taking me to places that I didn't want to go Whoa Today, in the blink of an eye I'm holding on to something and I do not know why I tried I tried to read between the lines, I tried to look in your eyes I want a simple explanation for what I'm feeling inside I gotta find a way out Maybe there's a way out Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer Do you know you're unlike any other? You'll always be my thunder, and I said Your eyes are the brightest of all the colors I don't wanna ever love another You'll always be my thunder So bring on the rain And bring on the thunder Today is a winding road Tell me where to start and tell me something I don't know Whoa Today, I'm on my own I can't move a muscle and I can't pick up the phone I don't know And now I'm itching for the tall grass and longing for the breeze I need to step outside just to see if I can breathe I gotta find a way out Maybe there's a way out Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer Do you know you're unlike any other? You'll always be my thunder, and I said Your eyes are the brightest of all the colors I don't wanna ever love another You'll always be my thunder So bring on the rain Yeah, I'm walking on a tightrope, I'm wrapped up in vines I think I'll make it out, but you just gotta give me time Strike me down with lightning, let me feel you in my veins I wanna let you know how much I feel your pain Today is a winding road That's taking me to places that I didn't want to go Whoa Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer Do you know you're unlike any other? You'll always be my thunder, and I said Your eyes are the brightest of all the colors I don't wanna ever love another You'll always be my thunder, and I said Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer Do you know you're unlike any other? You'll always be my thunder So bring on the rain Oh baby, bring on the pain And listen to the thunder

Top down in the summer sun The day we met was like a hit-and-run And I still taste it on my tongue (taste it on my tongue) The sky was burning up like fireworks You made me want you oh-so-bad it hurt But girl, in case you haven't heard I used to be love drunk but now I'm hungover I'll love you forever, forever is over We used to kiss all night, now it's just a bar fight So don't call me crying, say hello to goodbye 'Cause just one sip would make me sick I used to be love drunk but now I'm hungover I'll love you forever but now it's over Hot sweat and blurry eyes We're spinning 'round a rollercoaster ride The world stuck in black and white You drove me crazy every time we touched Now I'm so broken that I can't get up Oh girl, you make me such a lush I used to be love drunk but now I'm hungover I'll love you forever, forever is over We used to kiss all night, now it's just a bar fight So don't call me crying, say hello to goodbye 'Cause just one sip would make me sick I used to be love drunk but now I'm hungover I'll love you forever but now it's over All the time I wasted on you All the bullshit you put me through I'm checking into rehab 'cause everything That we had didn't mean a thing to you I used to be love drunk but now I'm hungover I'll love you forever but now I'm sober I used to be love drunk but now I'm hungover I'll love you forever, forever is over We used to kiss all night, now it's just a bar fight So don't call me crying, say hello to goodbye 'Cause just one sip would make me sick I used to be love drunk but now I'm hungover I'll love you forever but now it's over Now it's over (still taste it on my tongue) Now it's over
