Lyrics

Back when life went on forever couldn’t get you off my mind
And if it kept us together we’d have left the world behind

You can blame it on us getting older, blame it on anything at all
You can blame the devil on your shoulder, or get me to take the fall

All those years of sitting shotgun, over time they take their toll
Moments you spent trusting no one turned your diamonds into coal
You can blame the whiskey and the cocaine, pin it on anyone but you
You can claim it’s me that’s acting insane and not coming through

But it ain’t me skippin’ town, it ain’t me let you down

I laid down for you in Brooklyn, I laid down in Baltimore
Yeah I let you get your hooks in the moment you walked through my door

It ain’t me skippin’ town, it ain’t me let you down
It ain’t me closed the door, it ain’t me needing more
It ain’t me brought the rain, it ain’t me
