Millhouse Girl - Edwin Mccain

I think we’re lying to each other

You call this smolder but it’s smother

You tell me stories, you speak in damage

You’re showing me just how to take advantage

And it starts to burn 'cause I’m a cheater

I could use you up and not feel a thing

But tonight I’m not the same depleter

This common ground you’re suffering

You’re the Millhouse girl, I’m the sad little boy

Memories we use to just go on and destroy

Every might have been, every kindness shown

Raised to feel unlovable in your home, sick home

I’ll be honest, why I came here

Well, the truth is cloudier than clear

I can lead you out of these woods

That terrorized me 'cause this is where I stood

When it used to burn with disapproval

I never measured up, I never made the grade

I can’t heal your pain but the truth

Will help you set it down, set it down

You’re the Millhouse girl, I’m the sad little boy

Echos from your past are not your measure of joy

'Cause there’s so much love in the great big world

Even for sad little boys and Millhouse girls

You’re the Millhouse girl, I’m the sad little boy

Echos from your past are not your measure of joy

'Cause there’s so much love in the great big world

Even for sad little boys and Millhouse girls
