lyrics

No One Sings It Better

Jumped straight in my car and said drive
Searching for a place you could hide
From all of your failures and ghosts
Once heroes that wasted your time
I never could manage to shake
The way you would watch the day break
I still look for you in the dark
And a way to get back to the start

We don’t have to fight
You don’t have to talk
You don’t have to stay
So please don’t walk

Even so baby, No One Sings It Better than you do
Our worst regrets, the dreams of such fools
We’re always caught between paying our dues
Veiled truths all I could give to you

Hit me straight out of nowhere like you
The clouds unfolded clear and blue
I’ll never understand how
I could always find a way to let you down
So stuck on getting you back
It all happened so damn fast
Distracted by your ominous frown
Off the bridge on the edge of old town

You don’t have to go
We never got to talk
And now I’ll never know
If we were better off
You just gotta know
I wasn’t gonna stop
I never would have left
Unless you called it off

Andy Hawkins did the thing everyone dreams of doing; he quit his job of 7 years, started writing songs, and is about to put out his first EP. Inspired by Bob Dylan, Brian Fallon and Billy Bragg, Andy signed up for songwriting coaching with Canadian songwriter Billy Pettinger. He then traded in his 60 hour work weeks and unforgiving boss for a gig as a security guard so he could focus on writing. ... more
