lyrics

I don't know what hurt the most,
waking you up, making you eggs and toast --
I don't mean to be sentimental in my lines,
but you're the greatest thing that I had had in such a long time

I remember the look on your face
when you said it would be better if I left your place,
I wrote you a letter, hopin' for the best --
I saw you toss it out the window as I left your complex

Darling, you are leaving me today, oh what a shame
put the letters at the door and with the records, do the same
Tell your folks that I mean well, it breaks my heart to say goodbye
It was a fool's mistake, you made my poor heart break,
you were the apple of my eye

I loved you, darling, and I'm not one to lie
I don't know how to function without you by my side
I rang your phone, hoping that you'd reply,
I left a voicemail at the tone and I thought I'd die

I can still be your sweetheart if you ask me to,
say the word and I'll be there --
I miss your arms around me and I miss the way you care
be my all American boy, I beg of you,
don't leave me all alone on your porch, all painted blue
I've been around the world, and there's one thing I knew
that only you would do
