A Bad Way

Watch what you say to me
Cuz it's not okay
To break me apart
And then wish it away
Yeah, you got a way with words
But it's a bad way

You know how to break a heart
And lay the blame
Twist it around
Say it's all the same
Yeah, you got a way with words
But it's a bad way

I had to drive out west alone
Away from your voice on the telephone
I was run down, I was gone
I was tired of doing everything wrong
And I hate to tell you baby
We're in a bad way

It's kind of a sleight of hand
What you can do
I start off feeling hurt
And end up sorry for you
Yeah, you got a way with words
But it's a bad way

I had to drive out west alone
Away from your voice on the telephone
I was run down, I was gone
I was tired of doing everything wrong
And I hate to tell you baby
We're in a bad way

So watch what you say to me
Cuz it's not okay
To break me apart
And then wish it away
Yeah, you got a way with words
But it's a bad way
Yeah, you got a way with words
But it's a bad way
