I've been staring at the page for what seems like days   I guess I put this one off for a while   Did I see a tear fall from your eyes   Or did you laugh so hard that you cried   When I served my secrets on a silver tray to you      Hey now, I guess the night's just bringing me down      There's no love, there's no hate   I left them there for you to take   But, know that every word was a piece of my heart      You've been the blood in my veins   The only one who knows my middle name   And the smiles they came easy 'cause of you   You know that I love you, but I hate you   'Cause I know I can never escape you   Let the choir sing for tonight I'm an easy mark      Hey now, am I acting just a little too proud      There's no love, there's no hate   I left them there for you to take   You know that every word was a piece of my heart   Have I said too much maybe I haven't said enough   But know that every word was a piece of my heart      Hush me darling, maybe I've lost my touch   Maybe I've lost my guts there, is that truth enough   Hey now, hey now      You know these love letters mix with whiskey   Just don't light a match when you kiss me   Though I'll blow away, you know I'll be back soon      Hey now, hey now, hey now, am I talking just a little too loud      There's no love, there's no hate   I left them there for you to take   But know that every word was a piece of my heart   Have I said too much maybe I haven't said enough   But know that every word was a piece of my heart      Hey now, am I talking just a little too proud   Hey now, the night's just bringing me down
