The Worst Way Lyrics

Well I've been coined and coupled
But I've been blooming, dear
And since I lost my heart's first sugar
Well I'm dry of salty tears
And all alone tonight, I'm staring down the ceiling
And you're the one I see
And I want you in the worst way
The way we used to be

Oh but dear, we know what always happens
Yeah we pour ourselves another one
A pint of pity and a shot of courage
And doubles for all the ones we've loved
And all alone tonight, I'm staring down the ceiling
And you're the one I see
And I want you in the worst way
The way we used to be

So tonight you'll dream we'd never fallen
And I'll dream I kissed your mouth again
But even when we find another
Yeah you'll be the one who holds me then
But all alone tonight, I'm staring down the ceiling
And honey you're the one I see
And I want you in the worst way
The way we used to be
Honey, I want you in the worst way
The way we used to be
And honey, I want you in the worst way

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
