Taking Back Sunday - Better Homes And Gardens Lyrics
When you took that ring off, balled it in your fistEyes like a smoking gunSurprised at what you didSo don't even think for one second your following me inMy parents are home, so is my kidJust go onThat house that you hateThat house that we bought and failed to makeWhen you took that ring offI sat there stunnedParked out in my carSurprised at what you'd doneThe courage that must have took left me utterly speechlessAnd though it came as no surprise I still couldn't believe itYou'll never be happyYou'll never be happyBut it was all for nothingYea it was all a wasteYou held on tight and for dear lifeBut it was all for nothingWhen you took that ring offThrew it at your feetYou didn't say a wordMuch less look at meThe courage that must have took I just couldn't believe itIn that moment you were perfectAnd it made all the bullshit seem worth itBut it was all for nothingYea it was all a wasteYou held on tight and for dear lifeBut it was all for nothingYea it was all a wasteYou held on tight(Held on tight)And for dear life(For dear life)But it was all for nothing(Held on tight and for dear life)(We held on tight for dear life)(We held on tight)So just go onThat house that you hateThat house that we bought and failed to makeIt was all for nothingIt was all a wasteAnd now you'll never be happyOh you'll never be happyCause it was all for nothingIt was all a wasteYou held on tight and for dear lifeBut it was all for nothingYea it was all a wasteWe held on tight(Held on tight)And for dear life(And for dear life)But it was all for nothing(Held on tight and for dear life)(We held on tight)When you took off that ring(For dear life)When you took off that ring(Held on tight)
