Shame on me, slap on my wrist At your door and I'm not proud of it Yesterday I said, "I'm done" I swung back just like a pendulum (Ha-ha) Ooh, and the sugar turned bitter Ooh, and the summer turned to winter But I still want your love (want your love, ha-ha) Ooh, they can tell me I'm a sinner Ooh, but they can't call me a quitter I won't give you up Old habits die hard Every time I say goodbye I find a way to justify running to your arms Old habits die hard You know that I wanna change I wanna correct my brain You can't help who you are Old habits die (hard) Made a promise, made a pact With my fingers crossed behind my back Like a creature you set free I'll crawl back to you eventually (Ha-ha) Ooh, and the sugar turned bitter Ooh, and the summer turned to winter But I still want your love (want your love, ha-ha) Ooh, they can tell me I'm a sinner Ooh, but they can't call me a quitter I won't give you up Old habits die hard Every time I say goodbye I find a way to justify running to your arms Old habits die hard You know that I wanna change I wanna correct my brain You can't help who you are Old habits die One more time, wanna fade away Too far gone to come back today Old habits die One more time, wanna fade away Too far gone to come back today Even though they tell me I'd be better alone You're in my muscle memory and you're in my bones A world without you is a world I don't wanna know Old habits die hard Every time I say goodbye I find a way to justify running to your arms Old habits die hard You know that I wanna change I wanna correct my brain You can't help who you are Old habits die One more time, wanna fade away Too far gone to come back today One more time, wanna fade away Too far gone to come back today

I'm beside myself Frozen in regret Convinced myself that the past is not dead A pity party for one I'm quickly coming undone But can you blame me for getting in the way I'm taking no blame I'm tearing the pages Poor old me I'll fake for display Forever complacent Always getting in the way I've displaced my head 'Cause I won't accept I've gone and left the present for dead A pity party for one I'm quickly coming undone But can you blame me for getting in the way But can you blame me I'm taking no blame I'm tearing the pages Poor old me I'll fake for display Forever complacent Always getting in the way Poor old me Always getting in Don't blame me Poor old me Always getting in the way I'll never blame me I'm taking no blame I'm tearing the pages Poor old me I'll fake for display Forever complacent Always getting in the way Poor old me Always getting in the way I'll never blame me

You've been drinking red wine like it's water Cocaine makes it hard for me to sleep We should meet somewhere in the middle Get some solid ground beneath our feet Know if I leave That I'll return I could never give you up Old habits die hard Used to happy life conversation Without the use of mind-altering drugs Ran out of things to say or lost the patience That don't mean that we fell out of love I know if you leave That you'll return And you could never give me up 'Cause old habits die hard Dreams are sold without a lifetime guarantee With the best of intentions I can't lie, put my heart upon my sleeve I know if I leave That I'll return And I could never give you up 'Cause old habits die hard

I kicked the habit of smoking back some time ago And I tried the hard stuff, but I had to let all that go But the toughest thing I ever gave up was today 'Cause old habits like you are hard to break I use Life Savers to help me get off cigarettes But you know for your love, I ain't found no Life Savers yet And I've gone cold turkey 'cause there's not even on kiss a day And old habits like you are hard to break Old habits like you are hard to break Love with someone new is so hard to make I had grown so used to you, your love and all of your ways And old habits like you are hard to break

Somewhere in the world now you're getting out of bed You're standing on your own feet to shake your sleepy head If you win you take the credit, if you lose you take the blame No one knows where you are and they never will again I can still remember the day you up and left I swear it was a moment I will never forget You said you'd take no prisoners, but that's just what you did You took my heart captive, hope you know that you are missed Welcome to your life, welcome to goodbye You see the big world through small town eyes Welcome to the point, the point of no return Let the past ignite and memories burn I say welcome to wherever you are I can see you in a doorway with the daylight flooding in It must have hid your secrets, I know more than I did then Looking back I should have noticed, there was a longing in your eyes And underneath the surface there's a truth you could not hide All the time we spent together, every night we stayed up late All the looks that I've forgotten and the plans we never made Do you ever wonder about everything you left? Do you question your decisions, do you ever second guess? Welcome to your life, welcome to goodbye You see the big world through small town eyes Welcome to the point, the point of no return Let the past ignite and memories burn I say welcome to wherever you are You are, you are, wherever you are Welcome to your life, welcome to goodbye You see the big world through small town eyes Welcome to the point, the point of no return Let the past ignite and memories burn I say, say Welcome to your life, welcome to goodbye You see the big world through small town eyes Welcome to the point, the point of no return Let the past ignite and memories burn I say, say welcome to wherever you are

Sally tells long for love, it started In new amsterdam, she's gone, gone Through change, gone through planes And magazines, and that is all, the Church bells ringing through her head, Some live life through the dotted line, some Bet the safe bet sounding off The good life, the one life, the whole Life, the old life, the lasting single Solitary world that you will know, The good life, the one life, the whole Life, the old life, the lasting single Solitary world that you will know This counsel's faltered enough, and Shadows drag through the dusk, and That's the way it always goes down Now this counsel's faltered enough, Back through the sin that you trust And that's the way it always, always Goes Chasing dreams and signing off, Through the haze that's given up, she's Gone, gone through change, gone Through flood and hurricane, and that Is all, sheltered victory's defeat a Martyr for belief in time, a martyr For a belief in life The good life, the one life, the whole Life, the old life, the lasting single Solitary world that you will know, The good life, the one life, the whole Life, the old life, the lasting single Solitary world that you will know This counsel's faltered enough, and Shadows drag through the dusk, and That's the way it always goes down Now this counsel's faltered enough, Back through the sin that you trust And that's the way it always, always Goes Our winter is long, too long for us Every year, and our blood is ice, ice Just like the roadway glare, the poor man Survives, the rich man sheds many Tears, whoever we are, we wish to God We were better here But no i won't say that, no i won't be There, i'm not the answer, i don't see Clear, i don't know, myself I don't know, myself, myself, And days feel like years

You said there's no way the days should feel this short As soon as one ends the other starts You said all day I feel you're playing a part When all you ever want to do was leave a mark Every day, another one wasted Every day you get up and face it Every day is a chance for redemption Every day, every day You said time moves fast but you're still stayin' in park As every chance takes off you don't depart But it's just the defense for all the moments That name and define what we do, well how about you? We're all scared of breaking through Every day, another one wasted Every day you get up and face it Every day is a chance for redemption Every day, every day Every day, another one wasted Every day you get up and face it Every day is a chance for redemption Every day, every day There's gotta be that something more that gets me through the night I'm out of touch, it's obvious, I'm out of place and over this There's gotta be that change that takes my path from wrong to right You said life is way too short as soon as one ends another starts Every day, another one wasted Every day you get up and face it Every day is a chance for redemption Every day, every day Every day, another one wasted Every day you get up and face it Every day is a chance for redemption Every day, a chance for redemption Every day, a chance for redemption Every day, a chance for redemption Every day, a chance for redemption Every day, every day
