Things have been so crazy and hectic, I should have got her back by now But you know how much I wanted to make it, It's probably better anyhow So if you gotta go, if there's anything I should know If the spotlight makes you nervous If you're looking for a purpose You put the tea in the kettle and light it Put your hand on the metal and feel it But do you even feel it anymore? I remember when you thought I was joking Now I'm off singing karaoke Farther than I've ever been So if you gotta go, if there's any way I can help Isn't it ironic that the girl I wanna marry is a wedding planner? And tells me that my life is too much and moves to Atlanta? Damn Of all the places you could go I just thought you'd choose somewhere that has somebody that you know I'm always up too late, I worry about you there alone And that place you call your home, warm nights and cold Patron I hope you don't get known for nothing crazy Cause no man ever wants to hear those stories about his lady I know they say the first love is the sweetest But that first cut is the deepest I tried to keep us together, you were busy keeping secrets You were telling everybody but me Don't be fooled by the money, I'm still just young and unlucky I'm surprised you couldn't tell I was only trying to get ahead I was only trying to get ahead But the spotlight makes you nervous And you're looking for a purpose I was only trying to get ahead I was only trying to get ahead But the spotlight makes you nervous
