"The Rope" lyrics

"The Rope"

Tell me that you're never gonna miss somebody like you miss me
Tell me that you're never gonna hurt somebody like you hurt me
I was chasing new horizons
Wide open spaces got me crying

I know I let you go and I told you to let it be
I know I cut the rope but I don't want you to go free

Promise that you're never gonna wake up in an ordinary bed
Swear you're never gonna tell a soul about the shit that I said
The LA sky never changes
But in my mind, there's no escaping

I know I let you go and I told you to let it be
I know I cut the rope but I don't want you to go free

Monday
Tuesday
Wednesday
Thursday
Friday
Saturday night
No reply, why oh why

I know I let you go and I told you to let it be
I know I cut the rope but I don't want you to go free
I know I let you go and I told you to let it be
I know I cut the rope but I don't want you to go free

Monday
Tuesday
Wednesday
Thursday
Friday
Saturday night
