Dance With Old Habits (Lyrics)

Lost and alive in New York City, traded the world for salt and sand We made the move across the country, we left our friends and fears behind We built our life and planned together and chose to fight until the bitter end Because we were in love and that was all we needed Until it wasn't enough to calm my hands I could've married that girl Dressed her in ribbons, diamonds and pearls I was just one moment away from changing my life for you She got sick and he got angry, this was life while making plans But he wasn't there, must've been distracted or too hopeless to care, we won't understand The dirty sex that got me twisted, that held me close then pushed me away Until I hit the bricks and you hit rock bottom Now you're reaching for roots as they crumble to sand I could've married that girl Dressed her in ribbons, diamonds and pearls I was just one moment away from changing my life for you When everything's perfect ain't good enough We dance with old habits to prove that we should If anyone's leaving please let it be me I should've married that girl Drowned her in kisses and gave her my world You see, I was just one drink away From saving my life for you, from saving my life for you From saving my life
