Worse Things Lyrics

Johnny Hollow Worse Things

Once when I was all alone,
I called you, and you weren't at home
My heart fell like a stone, to the ground
To the ground, to the ground
Why, when morn had dawned on me,
And anger grew like ecstasy,
And Leda threw the swan on me and I fell to the ground,
To the ground, to the ground

-Chorus-
Oh, don't say "I want you",
Don't stay this way, believe me,
I wasn't trying to play the game
Where someone's to blame,
I'll stay the same 'til you change your mind
And you'll change your mind

I could have broken you,
I should have spoken for you
You should have seen it was turning me on
Don't you know it's true?
There are worse things, perverse things I could do

Once when I was all alone,
I could not find the telephone
So instead I burned your pretty home to the ground
To the ground, to the ground

-Chorus-
