Lyrics Carrie Underwood

Carrie Underwood

Backsliding

I'm not suppose to be thinking 'bout you and laying here in this bed

Too much has gone wrong and we should move on, that's what we both said

There's a million reasons why we said goodbye

Why we couldn't try, couldn't fight for it anymore

Put your ring in the back of the dresser draw

And we closed that door

So why am I 2 A.M. pickin' up my phone and you're standin' in my porch light

Backsliding

Wearin' your old t-shirt in the mornin', it feels so right

Backsliding

We say we won't, but then we do

The same old thing fallin' right back in, say it's gonna be the last time

Backsliding, I'm backsliding

Backsliding, I'm backsliding

Well, I heard that you've been hangin' around with someone new

Yeah, word gets around in such a small town, bet you heard I'm seein' someone too

There's a million reasons why we should be happy

Not lookin' back, livin' in the past anymore

But they ain't addin' up, I guess they ain't enough

'Cause here I am

At 2 A.M. pickin' up my phone and you're standin' in my porch light

Backsliding

Wearin' your old t-shirt in the mornin', it feels so right

Backsliding

We say we won't, but then we do

The same old thing fallin' right back in, say it's gonna be the last time

Backsliding, I'm backsliding

Backsliding, I'm backsliding

And we keep pushing, pulling back, sliding

Pushing, pulling, slipping back, sliding

I keep asking myself, keep asking myself

Why do I need you and nobody else?

If we're not meant to be then why do we keep backsliding?

And why am I 2 A.M. pickin' up my phone and you're standin' in my porch light

Backsliding

Wearin' your old t-shirt in the mornin', it feels so right

Backsliding

We say we won't, oh but then we do, yeah

The same old thing fallin' right back in, say it's gonna be the last time

Backsliding, I'm backsliding

Yeah, yeah

I'm backsliding, yeah

Backsliding

Why do we keep backsliding?

I can't help it, I'm backsliding

I need you, I'm back sliding

Why do we keep backsliding?

Backsliding

Backsliding

Backsliding

Backsliding
