Because Of You
Kelly Clarkson
I will not make the same mistakes (as ) you did
I will not let myself
Cause my heart so much (was't me )
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 ( wanna) 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 I know that's (weakness ) in your eyes
I'm forced to (fake )
A smile, a laugh everyday of my life
My heart ( can't ) possibly break
When it wasn't ( ) to start with
Because of you
I never ( stray) too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I ( wanna) 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 watched you (down )
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 ( )
You just saw your pain
And now I cry in the middle of the night
For the same ( )
Because of you
I never (stray ) too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I ( wanna) to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
Because of you
I try my (hard ) just to forget everything
Because of you
I don't know how to let anyone else (see )
Because of you
I'm ( ) of my life because it's ( )
Because of you
I am afraid
Because of you (oh)
Because of you (mm, oh)
