"Ain't So Green" Lyrics

Well I ain't so slow that I don't know that you put on a show when I'm around
And I ain't so mean that I ain't seen the way you look to me to calm you down

But there's too many ways to break a heart
There's too many ways to fall apart
There's too many things that I could do to let you down
And I ain't so green that I ain't see the way love slips away without a sound

Well you ain't so bad that I ain't had a thought or two about you in the dark
And it ain't true that I don't dream about you from time to time when we're apart
But there's too many ways to steal a kiss
And far to many memories to miss
And I'll be at your mercy babe the moment that we start
And I ain't so green that I ain't seen the damage love can do in open heart

Baby give me everything you've got
Pull me from the wreckage of the battles that I've fought
I haven't got the strength to battle you
So maybe you could show me something new,
maybe you could show me something new

Well I ain't so cold that I ain't told you that you're the one I want to keep me warm
And I ain't so dumb that I won't come to you when I need shelter from the storm
And there's so many ways to fall in love,
there's so many fears to rise above
There's so many sorry stories written in my soul
But I ain't so green that I ain't seen the way love makes the broken heart-ed whole

Baby give me everything you've got
Pull me from the wreckage of the battles that I've fought
I haven't got the strength to battle you
So maybe you could show me something new,
maybe you could show me something new
