French Cinnamon

[Verse 1]
Mama, I'm a good boy
I try and i try, but I never win
Strangers on the outside
They look, but they won't let me in
Flowers for my sweet heart
I picked from the soil in the summer rain
Brushing up my street smarts
How could I have known it would be like this

[Chorus]
When you know where you went wrong
Those memories will tear you apart
When you go where you belong
This heartache will bury us all

[Verse 2]
The boys in the back bar
All tied to their arms like a ball and chain
I promised to be better
I fell to the floor, went down and prayed
Dear God, I'm alone, I need help
Dear God, I'm a lost soul
I'll bury the hatchet
I'm ready to come home

[Chorus]
When you know where you went wrong
Those memories will tear you apart
When you go where you belong
This heartache will bury us all

[Bridge]
I was right upon the ledge
I was ready for the end
Life had torn me apart
Time to be buried alone, my love

[Chorus]
When you know where you went wrong
Those memories will tear you apart
When you go where you belong
This heartache will bury us all
