Inherited

When your heart's all tangled up and your mind is driftin' on
And you wonder if I've forgot who I am and who I'm not
There's no way to lose the feelin' I get with you
'Cause I've been carryin' it with me all my life

I got lots from the laughs late at night
I get blue from the worry in your eyes
I have tears for the sorrow you've lived
I tried to love the way you do
Oh, everybody thinks it's me
But I inherited from you, yeah

I stop and talk to strangers to hear what you would say
I turn the corner down on pages so I'd never lose my place
A million things I'd do because of you

Oh, I got lots from the laughs late at night
I get blue from the worry in your eyes
Oh, I have tears for the sorrow you've lived
I tried to love the way you do
Oh, everybody thinks it's me
But I inherited from you

If someone would have told me
That I would've known me
Whenever I look at you

Oh, I got lots from the laughs late at night
I get blue from the worry in your eyes
Oh, I have tears for the sorrow you've lived
I tried to love the way you do
Oh, everybody thinks it's me, yeah
Oh, everybody thinks it's me, oh-oh
But I inherited from you, oh yeah
All from you, yeah, yeah
