Debbie Hennessey: Music

This Ain't About You

(Debbie Hennessey)
From the cd Rustic Heart
Written By: Mark Luna, Stan Web, ©1996 Major Bob Music, Inc., ASCAP; Stan Webb Music

I can’t explain the way that I feel
All that I know is that the pain is unreal
I’ve prayed every night I’d wake up and find it gone

But the dream I keep dreamin just won’t go away
I’m caught between leaving and wanting to stay
But the need to move on, baby I can no longer deny
I didn’t mean to make you cry, but…

Chorus: This ain’t about you
This ain’t about us
This ain’t about freedom cause you gave me enough
Don’t take the blame
Cause this ain’t what you did or didn’t do
This ain’t about you

You know I’ve been restless, lost and confused
I know it’s unfair, yes I know you feel used
But to keep on pretending
Is something my heart and my love just won’t allow
Please forgive me now, cause…

Chorus: This ain’t about you
This ain’t about us
This ain’t about freedom cause you gave me enough
Don’t take the blame
Cause baby this ain’t what you did or didn’t do
This ain’t about you

Bridge: No…Now what lies ahead
That’s hard for me to say
But I don’t want to regret
Something I could have changed, yeah

Chorus: This ain’t about you
This ain’t about us
This ain’t about freedom cause you gave me enough
Don’t take the blame
Honey, this ain’t what you did or didn’t do…
