And I tried
And I know what we are
Yeah, I saw it in a strange dream

We're a mess
I'm afraid
That this is the real thing

And I tried
Tried to leave it all alone
Send your brown haired daughter home

But I can't
So I won't
and you ought to hear my heart curse

We're in love
IN a way
And it's only making it worse

And I tried
Tried to leave it all alone
Send your brown haired daughter home

And I'd like
Yeah I'd like to let her be
Set your brown haired daughter free





Yeah, it's strange
How we are
So safe until we're sorry

On a dime
On a dare
And it's not my fault she loves me

And I tried
Tried to leave it all alone
Send your brown haired daughter home

And I'd like
Yeah I'd like to let her be
Set your brown haired daughter free

And I tried
Tried to leave it all alone
Send your brown haired daughter home

But I can't
So I won't
