Verse 1
I'm like the water
when your
ship rolled
in that n
ight
Rough on the surf
ace, but you c
ut through l
ike a kni
fe
And if it was an op
en-shut ca
se
I never would've kn
own from t
hat look on
your face
Lost in your curren
t like a p
riceless win
e
Chorus
The more that you
say, the less I kn
ow
Wherever you s
tray, I follow
I'm begging for
you to take my ha
nd
Wreck my
plans, that's my
man
Verse 2
Life was a willow a
nd it bent
right to yo
ur wind
Head on the pillow,
I could f
eel you snea
kin' in
As if you were a my
thical thi

Like you were a tro
phy or a c
hampion ring
And there was one p
rize I'd c
heat to win
Chorus
The more that you
say, the less I k
now
Wherever you s
tray, I fol
low
I'm begging for
you to take my ha

Wreck my p
lans, that's my
man
You know that my t
rain could take you
home
Anywhere e
lse is hol
low
I'm begging for y
ou to take my h
and
Wreck my p
lans, that's my
man
Bridge
Life was a willow and it
bent right to your
wind
They count me
out time and time
again
Life was a willow and it
bent right to your w
ind
Am7 F (N.C.)
But I come back stronger than a '90s trend
Verse 3
Wait for the signal
, and I'll
meet you af
ter dark
Show me the places
where the
others gave
you scars
Now this is an open
-shut case
I guess I should've
known fro
m the look o
n your face
Every bait-and-swit
ch was a w
ork of art
Chorus
The more that you
say, the less I k
now
Wherever you s
tray, I fol
low
I'm begging for
you to take my ha

Wreck my p

You know that my t

home
Anywhere e

Wherever you s
