Kelly Clarkson – Because of you
(Lyrics)
Because Of You
I will not let myself.
Cause my heart so much misery.
I will not break the way you did.
You fell so hard.
I’ve learned the hard way.
To never let it get that far.
Refreni :
Because of you.
I never stray too far from the sidewalk.
Because of you.
I learned to play on the safe side so I don’t get hurt.
Because of you.
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me.
Because of you
I am afraid.
I lose my way.
And it’s not too long before you point it out.
I cannot cry.
Because I know that’s weakness in your eyes.
I’m forced to fake.
A smile, a laugh every day of my life.
My heart can’t possibly break.
When it wasn’t even whole to start with.
Refreni :
Because of you.
I never stray too far from the sidewalk.
Because of you.
I learned to play on the safe side so I don’t get hurt.
Because of you.
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me.
Because of you.
I am afraid.
I watched you die.
I heard you cry every night in your sleep.
I was so young.
You should have known better than to lean on me.
You never thought of anyone else.
You just saw your pain.
And now I cry in the middle of the night.
For the same damn thing.
Refreni :
I never stray too far from the sidewalk.
Because of you.
I learned to play on the safe side so I don’t get hurt.
Because of you.
I try my hardest just to forget everything.
Because of you.
I don’t know how to let anyone else in.
Because of you.
I’m ashamed of my life because it’s empty.
Because of you.
I am afraid.Because of you.
Because of you.
