A Mess to Be Made The Format

[Verse 1]
In a dream that I can't seem to shake she is
She is standing alone
By the fence
I see tears in her eyes, why she cries
I just don't know
What a mess that I make of my days
Then there's you, you're a mess to be made
And the dream starts to fade away

[Verse 2]
So you're leaving for months at a time
I, I'll help you out the door
But once you're gone
I just stare out the window
Please, could you please come back home

[Chorus]
What a mess that I make of my days
Trying to save myself (save myself)
Then there's you, you're a mess to be made
A canvas only paint could change

[Verse 3]
And a voice on the other end of the phone says
Why don't you write a song about it well here it goes
I was raised on something that you'll never know
I'd hate this place if it weren't for the waves
If it weren't for the fact that you love it
Where they measure a man on the money he spends
Well my love is not a bank statement
