Lyrics:
I saw you go down with your heart a flame,
I ran for water but grabbed kerosene.
Now oh my goodness despite my efforts what a blazing mess.
I climbed in bed with my frozen feet,
You felt something and threw back the sheets,
So there I'm lying, so there you're crying, how unfortunate.
But, all through it all the truth was I loved you best.
X2 (Now, you're holding something better,
And I'm holding 4 love letters and new regrets.
The irony is just so glaring cause now I've got this torch
To carry and it burns you best.
But, all through it all the truth was I loved you best.)
Now toothpaste in tube its just one of the views I have
About you and me lately.
It's cliche I know but seems apropos,
If the shoe fits well I figure say it.
I know it's a fact that I over-reacted
Sometimes my passions betray me.
The changes I made as I tried to come clean,
You were my bath water baby.
Now I did all the squeezing and now I've got this real bad feeling that I made this mess.
I did all the plug pulling and now I'm high and dry no fooling it's my fault I guess.
But, all through it all the truth was I loved you best.
All through it all the truth was...
Ah, don't you know the truth was...?
Ah, don't you know I loved you best.
You were my bathwater baby...
