Kelly Clarkson – Because Of You

Because Of You lyrics

Uh

Uh

Uh

I will not make

The same mistakes that you did

I

Will not let myself

’Cause my heart so much misery

I will not break

The way you did, you fell so hard

I’ve learned the hard way

To never let it get that far

Because of you

I never stray

Too far from the sidewalk

Because of you

I learned to play

On the safe side

So I don’t get hurt

Because of you

I find it hard

To trust not only me

But everyone around me

Because of you

I am afraid

I lose my way

And it’s not too long

Before you point it out

I cannot cry

Because you know

That’s weakness in your eyes

I’m forced to fake

A smile, a laugh

Everyday of my life

My heart can possibly break

When it wasn’t even whole to start with

Because of you

I never stray

Too far from the sidewalk

Because of you

I learned to play

On a safe side

So I don’t get hurt

Because of you

I find it hard

To trust not only me

But everyone around me

Because of you

I am afraid

I watched you die

I heard you cry

Every night in your sleep

I was so young

You should have known

Better than to lean on me

You never thought

Of anyone else

You just saw your pain

And now I cry

In the middle of the night

For the same damn thing

Because of you

I never stray

Too far from the sidewalk

Because of you

I learned to play

On the safe side

So I don’t get hurt

Because of you

I try my hardest

Just to forget everything

Because of you

I don’t know how

To let anyone else in

Because of you

I’m ashamed of my life

Because it’s empty

Because of you

I am afraid

Because of you

Ah

Because of you

Ah

Ah
