Strong Hands

You were the last thing I saw walking into my life but here you are Or there you were And I'd never tell you but you're the best thing to happen all year so far, I thought at first I know I said I wouldn't be another girl to flirt with casually But I'm no better than the next girl in line. Fine You can add me to your club, the one I made fun of I said I'd never waste my time on a random guy How stupid am I? I wasn't ready for love, I tried going out on dates But I told my mom I wouldn't be home late, cause they never stood a chance All I could think about was your strong hands One stupid decision led to another I hate that I told you about my mother and you don't get it Why did I open up about the things that close me off? You were drunk when you said you love me, I don't know what I thought You can add me to your club, the one I made fun of I said I'd never waste my time on a random guy How stupid am I? I wasn't ready for love, I tried going out on dates But I told my mom I wouldn't be home late, cause they never stood a chance All I could think about was your strong hands And the way you held me, or how the sunrise found your eyes; I swear they'd turn turquoise in the light God I'm blind I'm just pretending I can't hear my mother telling me what's to come: "Honey, he's using You, it's time to be done." Oh you can add me to your club of lovesick girls I made fun of I swore I'd never waste my time on a conceited guy How stupid am I? I wasn't ready for love, I tried going out on dates But I told my mom I wouldn't be home late, cause they never stood a chance All I could think about was your strong hands There's a pathetic part of my head that would rather stay heartbroken instead of leaving You My sweet mother might have said, "I told you so," but I already know, so she didn't She asked while I tucked her in, "who takes care of you, Catherine?" I said, "I do."
