KELLY CLARKSON - BEHIND THESE HAZEL EYES
Seems Like Just Yesterday
You Were A Part Of Me
I Used To Stand So Tall
I Used To Be So Strong
Your Arms Around Me Tight
Everything, It Felt So Right
Unbreakable Like Nothing Could Go Wrong
Now I Can't Breathe
No, I Can't Sleep
I'm Barely Hanging On
Here I Am
Once Again
I'm Torn Into Pieces
Can't Deny It
Can't Pretend
Just Thought You Were The One
Broken Up Deep Inside
But You Won't Get To See The Tears I Cry
Behind These Hazel Eyes
I Told You Everything
Opened Up And Let You In
You Made Me Feel Alright For Once In My Life
Now All That's Left Of Me
Is What I Pretend To Be
So Together But So Broken Up Inside
'Cause I Can't Breathe
No, I Can't Sleep
I'm Barely Hanging On
Here I Am
Once Again
I'm Torn Into Pieces
Can't Deny It
Can't Pretend
Just Thought You Were The One
Broken Up Deep Inside
But You Won't Get To See The Tears I Cry
Behind These Hazel Eyes
Swallow Me Then Spit Me Out
For Hating You, I Blame Myself
Just Seeing You, It Kills Me Now
Now I Don't Cry
On The Outside, Anymore!
Here I Am
Once Again
I'm Torn Into Pieces
Can't Deny It
Can't Pretend
Just Thought You Were The One
Broken Up Deep Inside
But You Won't Get To See The Tears I Cry
Behind These Hazel Eyes
Here I Am
Once Again
I'm Torn Into Pieces
Can't Deny It
Can't Pretend
Just Thought You Were The One
Broken Up Deep Inside
But You Won't Get To See The Tears I Cry
Behind These Hazel Eyes
