Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1 - Male] You said the words like reading lines Eyes on the floor, hand in mine "I don't really love you" But you still swore it every night I built a life from busted paychecks Turned your wish list into real decks You got the world you circled I just got more cigarettes [Chorus - Male] I gave you everything you ever wanted, Sarah Every little dream you circled in red Put the whole damn future on my shoulders You laid the truth beside my bed You told me you didn't truly love me Then you said it anyway I gave you everything you ever wanted, Sarah You gave me almost and halfway [Verse 2 - Female] You kept on pulling every string Bought me a house, locked in a ring Thought if you loved loud enough You could make my heart sing I tried to feel it, tried to fake Smiled at the pictures we would take Kissed you in that truck cab With both feet on the brake (oh) [Pre-Chorus - Duet] You heard "I'm sorry" as a challenge I meant it as a warning flare You were all in, I was a shadow But you still found someone there [Chorus - Duet] You gave me everything I ever wanted, Sarah (you say my name like a prayer) Every little dream I never could speak But I was always halfway leaning out the window Counting days instead of counting weeks I told you I didn't truly love you You kept loving me anyway You gave me everything I ever wanted, Sarah I gave you almost and halfway [Bridge - Duet] Now your boxes in the hallway My note on the kitchen chair You’re cursing me in that cracked mirror I'm staring at a girl who wasn't there Maybe there’s a world where we fit right Where the truth came sooner, soft and bright But in this one it’s a dark road Two tail-lights, two goodbyes [Chorus - Duet] You gave me everything I ever wanted, Sarah And I broke it in my trembling hands You built a castle on my maybe On shifting, sinking sand You told me that you didn’t truly love me But I heard, "I’ll change someday" You gave me everything you ever wanted, Sarah We lost it all in the halfway [Outro - Male] Everything you ever wanted, Sarah [Female] Everything you couldn’t make me say (mm) [Duet] You gave it all, I gave you halfway
