The Hold Steady "Soft in the center"



Well, the hospital's gonna let you go,
but the scene is gonna stick around.
Yeah, sure the stars in the sky
but the money's still down on the ground.

(??)
Then I might tell you something new.
You can't tell people what they want to hear
if you also want to tell the truth.

And I'm just trying to tell the truth, kid.
I'm just trying to tell the truth.

You can't get every girl.
You get the ones you love the best.
You won't get every girl.
You love the ones you get the best.

Nobody's wanna freeze over
I'm from a place with lots of lakes
but sometimes they get soft in the center
and the center is a dangerous place.

It's been a long, cold winter
and now you're standing on unsafe ice.
But you can probably do anything
if you could just go and get yourself right.

You gotta get yourself right, kid.
I'm gonna give you some advice.

You can't get every girl.
You get the ones you love the best.
You won't get every girl.
You love the ones you get the best.
Kid, you can't kiss every girl.
You gotta trust me on this one.
You gotta trust me on this one.

I know what you're going through.
I had to go through that, too.
I know what you're going through.
I had to go through that, too.

You can't' get every girl.
You get the ones you love the best.
You won't get every girl.
You love the ones you get the best.
You can't get every girl.
You get the ones you love the best.
You won't get every girl.
You love the ones you get the best.

I know what you're going through.
