lyrics

Take care what you don’t wish for
It might be passing by your door
Take care what you don’t wish for
It might just not come true
It might come home to you
She says it’s not good for a man to live alone
She asks you are you a believer? She says
Her brother did such things he killed her family
You never know if she means literally
Hearts might heal
But you can’t unbreak a home
Hearts might heal
Take care what you don’t wish for
It might be passing by your door
Take care what you don’t wish for
It might just not come true
It might break you in two
She says be careful with your heart, my friend, she says
Look what I let mine do to me
She says she knows that she’s a catch, and so she is, but
She lets her girlfriend run her over
Hearts might heal
But you can’t unbreak a home
Hearts might heal
Take care what you don’t wish for
It might be passing by your door
Take care what you don’t wish for
It might just not come true
It might break you in two
She feels the pressure gathering behind her eyes
She sees less of you by degrees
You’ve given her a home and she’s given you hope
But now all four of you are breaking
Take care what you don’t wish for
