Lyrics
Gritty 04:00
I was lying on the road
Looking at my skin
I said hey baby
Will you come and look in?
I was pleading
Don’t you leave me
I was begging you
Don’t forsake me
I could tell the sight
Weren’t pretty
But sometimes
Love gets gritty
I was lying beside you
Through a long dark night
I was holding your hand
Oh so tight
I was thinking
About you leaving
About you
Going away
You woke
To find me praying
Begging you to stay
Well love it’s a dark time
So love
Welcome to my dark mind
I was walking a long road
Trying to find my way
I was telling you to go
But hoping you would stay
I was giving you this shit
‘Cause you’d given some to me
I was blinding you with words
But hoping you’d see through me
But sometimes love gets gritty
