Doesn't pay to try.
At least my boys know why.
Doesn't mean I didn't try,
Just never know why.
Feel so cold and alone
'Cause baby you're not at home,
And when I'm home
I am alone.
Feel so restless, I am
Beat my head against a post.
Try to knock some sense
Down on my bones.
And even though they don't show,
The scars aren't so old.
And when they go,
They'll let you know.
You can't put your arms around a memory
You can't put your arms around a memory
You can't put your arms around a memory
Don't try
Don't try
Don't try
You're just a bastard kid
And you got no name
'Cause you're living with me.
We're one and the same.
And even though they don't show
The scars aren't old
And when they go
They gonna let you know
That you can't put your arms around a memory
You can't put your arms around a memory.
You can't put your arms around a memory.
Don't try
Don't try
Yeah you can't put your arms around a memory.
You can't put your arms around a memory.
You can't put your arms around a memory.
Don't try
Don't try
Don't try
