lyrics

You're old enough to know it's true this too shall pass
But your weary heart's still fading fast
Wishing all day long like that might bring him back
But it won't 

You can fake a smile
Drown in sweet denial
Or cry along when George Jones sings
You can stare that phone down all night long
But you ain't gonna make it ring
No, you ain't gonna make it ring

Maybe you've been thinking you should wait
What if he finally sees it's a mistake?
What if he still dreams about your open arms?
Well, he don't 

You can fake a smile
Drown in sweet denial
Or cry along when George Jones sings
You can stare that phone down all night long
But you ain't gonna make it ring
No, you ain't gonna make it ring

You don't have to want him back
You don't have to live here in the past
Go on, find somebody new

I know you've done this all before
So pick your heart up off that floor
And do it all
Once more

You can fake a smile
Drown in sweet denial
Or cry along when George Jones sings
You can stare that phone down all night long
But you ain't gonna make it ring
No, you ain't gonna make it ring

“Like Gram Parsons, Pittelman peels away the superficiality that much of country music has embraced and looks deep into its soul, its history, and its stories and makes it all her own.”—No Depression
