[Verse 1]
'Cause my arms will die without your hands to live
And your arms will lie parallel to his
And I won't be fooled as long as I don't hear
That you have been whispering
Sweet nothings in his ear
[Chorus]
And one of these days he'll screw up
And oh, you'll question the love
And I will be waiting there for you
To wander back
'Cause you deserve more than that
'Cause you deserve more than that
[Verse 2]
You'll pardon his thinking
All the fights he dragged you through
And I learned of his shortcomings
When I got to lie with you
The ways that we differ
And ways you can begin
To bring back the green in your eyes
The sadness from your skin
[Chorus]
And one of these days you'll grow up
And oh, you'll question a love
That never fulfilled you from the start
It won't take long to mend
A broken heart deserves more than that
'Cause it deserves more than that
[Bridge]
You'll wait for a break
And the morning comes
And it feels like a burning
Burning touch of the sun
It feels like broken glass
The shot of a gun
[Chorus]
One of these days he'll screw up
And oh, you'll question the love
And I will be waiting there for you
To wander back
'Cause one of these days you'll grow up
And oh, you'll question a love
It never fulfilled you from the start
It won't take long to mend a broken heart
'Cause you deserve more than that
You deserve more than that
You deserve more than that
