Be There

(album: What It Is - 2019)

You look like a tragedy
That just hasn't happened yet
I've been on a losing streak
And I'm trying to forget

You act like we were meant to be
Like country songs in Tennessee
Baby, I need to believe
'Cause I want you so bad

You say you will
But I know you won't
I know you won't
I know you won't
Be there

You got leaving in your eyes
And I don't wanna see it
It'll turn your promise into a lie
No matter how you try to keep it

And now I'm standing at the edge of town
The bell heavy as the sun goes down
So tired of going 'round and 'round
I wanna take you at your word

'Cause you say you will
But I know you won't
I know you won't
I know you won't
Be there

You'd feel like a memory
Of something that I've never known
Somebody who could take me there
Somebody who could take me home

You say you will
But I know you won't
I know you won't
I know you won't
Be there
Be there
Be there
