lyrics

Did you want me to show up on your doorstep
A bottle in my hand
Screaming at the windows
Make you understand
Did you want me to get mad, make a scene
Tear out of this bar we're in
Oh, that's not the way I play

Cause I know this song as well as you
I used to like them crazy, too
Before I was a harder girl
If I told you once it's twenty times
The grass is greener on my side
Living strong but loving blind
I think I'll find
A harder girl

Did you want me to tell you that I need you
In a line, or two, or four
Look over my shoulder
As I'm walking out the door
Were you better off without the talk
Before you crossed the line she's drawn
Oh, that's not the way I play

Cause I know this song as well as you
I used to like them crazy, too
Before I was a harder girl
If I told you once it's twenty times
The grass is greener on my side
Living strong but loving blind
I think I'll find
A harder girl

I think that the difference was
I wanted to save them all
While you were filling space with someone else
I can look at the brighter times
Mountains before she's mine
While you keep feeling sorry for yourself

Cause I know this song as well as you
I used to like them crazy, too
Before I was a harder girl
If I told you once it's twenty times
The grass is greener on my side
Living strong but loving blind
I think I'll find
A harder girl
