Hayes Carll Be There Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You look like a tragedy
That just hasn't happened yet
I've been on a losing streak
And I'm trying to forget
You act like we were meant to be
Like country songs in Tennessee
Baby, I need to believe
'Cause I want you so bad

[Chorus]
You say you will
But I know you won't
I know you won't
I know you won't
Be there

[Verse 2]
You got leaving in your eyes
And I don't wanna see it
It'll turn your promise into a lie
No matter how you try to keep it
And now I'm standing at the edge of town
The bell heavy as the sun goes down
So tired of goin' 'round and 'round
I wanna take you at your word

[Chorus]
'Cause you say you will
But I know you won't
I know you won't
I know you won't
Be there

[Verse 3]
You'd feel like a memory
Of something that I've never known
Somebody who could take me there
Somebody who could take me home

[Chorus]
You say you will
But I know you won't
I know you won't
I know you won't
Be there
Be there
Be there
