Matt Nathanson - Answering Machine lyrics

I met a new one and she looks just like you

She gives me everything that you didn't want to

And maybe I don't need saving after all

She sticks in my ribs almost better than you did

And maybe I'm tired or maybe she glows

I wonder if you're still defending

I wonder if you're still defending

I can fall alone if all

if I can fall away

You've been so wrong for so long now

I can fall alone if all

if I can fall away

Met someone with your eyes and your skin

I can convince her of anything

And baby, it's so delicious you should

Come here and see for yourself

"I'm gone", you said, "if this is all there is...

You'll never shine alone

And I wonder if you're still defending

And I wonder if you're still defending

I can fall alone if all

if I can fall away

You've been so wrong

For so long now

I can fall alone if all

if I can fall away

And your new anthems that you breathe

And I've got you on my answering machine

Coz I've kissed others lips

And they promised to heal me

It's easy if you try, just try

And I wonder if you're still defending

I wonder love, I wonder...

I can fall alone if all

if I can fall away

I can fall alone if all

if I can fall away

You've been so wrong

For so long now

I can fall alone if all

if I can fall away

You've been so wrong

For so long now

I can fall alone if all

if I can fall away

And your new anthems that you breathe

And I've got you on my answering machine

And I've got you on my answering machine

(I can fall alone if all

if I can fall away)
