All of those resolutions
They were jokes he knew not to tell
Ghosts see a clean getaway
When you start to lie to yourself
One year, you’re standing tall
The next, you’re falling off of the world
Some fool who had it all
Then lost the faith of a girl
Only to say, “all she had to do was stay
All she had to do was stay”
Who would I be without you, baby?
I don’t ever want to know
Some ugly American
Carrying on with no self-control?
Mornings, he blames himself
But at night, it all blurs to gray
A shot-and-chaser plot to erase her
That always goes astray the same old way
Then you’ve got to hear him say
“All she had to do was stay, stay, stay
All she had to do was stay
All she had to do was stay”
