Heartbreaker Lyrics

Settle down, head against the window
Counting hours by the handful
Of plastic bottle shots
Coming home, sleeping in my own bed
Waking up to the silence
I'm no good at this at all

I need a good distraction
Honey if you could come by
And hold me like you want me
Like that would make me happy
Like that would take the pain away
If only for a while
And maybe in the morning
Leave without a warning
Just a note on the pillowcase that
Says "I never wanted more"
Cuddle up, wrap your arms around me
Don't lace it up with sympathy
It's just easy if you're sleeping
Soon enough I'll be leaving here tomorrow
And all the pain and the sorrow
Makes it easier to go

I need a good distraction
Honey if you could come by
And hold me like you want me
Like that would make me happy
Like that would take the pain away
If only for a while
And maybe in the morning
Leave without a warning
Just a note on the pillowcase that
Says "I never wanted more"

Oh, heartbreaker, name taker, ladies man
Oh, heartbreaker, name taker
Heartbreaker, ladies man, oh
