[00:-2.00] Reba McEntire with Kelly Clarkson - Because Of You
[00:-1.00]
[00:00.00]
[00:14.00]
[00:15.19] I will not make the same mistakes that you did
[00:22.22] I will not let myself cause my heart so much misery
[00:29.43] I will not break the way you did you fell so hard
[00:36.58] I've learned the hard way, to never let it get that far
[00:43.26]
[00:43.71] Because of you I never stray too far from the sidewalk
[00:50.93] Because of you I learned to play on the safe side
[00:54.98] So I don't get hurt
[00:57.92] Because of you I find it hard to trust
[01:01.61] Not only me, but everyone around me
[01:05.47] Because of you I am afraid
[01:12.21]
[01:14.26] I lose my way And it's not too long before you point it out
[01:21.15] I cannot cry Because I know that's weakness in your eyes
[01:28.46] I'm forced to fake a smile, a laugh Every day of my life
[01:35.55] My heart can't possibly break
[01:38.43] When it wasn't even whole to start with
[01:42.37]
[01:42.82] Because of you I never stray too far from the sidewalk
[01:49.92] Because of you I learned to play on the safe side
[01:53.92] So I don't get hurt
[01:57.09] Because of you I find it hard to trust
[02:00.59] Not only me, but everyone around me
[02:04.52] Because of you I am afraid
[02:11.06]
[02:11.60] I watched you die I heard you cry
[02:15.02] Every night in your sleep
[02:17.94] I was so young
[02:20.42] You should have known better than to lean on me
[02:25.87] You never thought of anyone else you just saw your pain
[02:33.42] And now I cry In the middle of the night For the same damn thing
[02:43.79]
[02:45.68] Because of you I never stray too far from the sidewalk
[02:52.12] Because of you I learned to play on the safe side
[02:57.00] So I don't get hurt
[02:59.76] Because of you I find it hard to trust
[03:03.52] Not only me, but everyone around me
[03:07.28] Because of you I am afraid
[03:13.01]
[03:18.12] Because of you
[03:25.31] Because of you
[03:33.96]
[03:34.36]
[03:44.18]
