How Quickly Your Heart Mends

(album: Honest Life - 2016)

Empty promises and a broken heart
Hiding in the bathroom of this bar
Crossing out your name in my mind
I'll cross out yours, now that you've crossed out mine

I can't believe I got all made up
Put on this dress that you love
Only for you to go and pretend
Like all those years meant nothing

So go on and forget
Act like we've never met
Leave with your new friends
How quickly your heart mends

The jukebox is playing a sad country song
For all the ugly Americans
Now I feel like one of them
Dancing alone and broken by the freedom

Now, I'm all dolled up for any drunken fool
Who thinks he can replace you
Lucky I haven't lost my self-respect
Despite all you've done and all that you've said

So go on and forget
Act like we've never met
Leave with your new friends
How quickly your heart mends
How quickly your heart mends
How quickly your heart mends

Go on and forget
Act like we've never met
Leave with your new friends
How quickly your heart mends
How quickly your heart mends
How quickly your heart mends
