T-Bone Burnett - Every Little Thing lyrics

For every little thing I did to hurt you

For every little way I made you cry

There's another line etched in my face

Another trace of sorrow in my eyes

For every careless word you spoke against me

For every time I staggered through your lies

There's another tear stain in your face

Another trace of anger in your eyes

Measuring the angle of the pain

Taking all the pleasure that remains

Shadows that follow you

Into this solitude

For every little thing I did to hurt you

For every little way I made you cry

There's another line etched in my face

Another trace of sorrow in my eyes

Swallowing the bitter and the vain

Seeing madness following in train

Shadows that threaten when

Dancing like skeletons

For every careless word you spoke against me

For every time I staggered through your lies

There's another tear stain in your face

Another trace of anger in your eyes
