Sugar Coat Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I turn the bathroom light on
To take my make up off
Look at myself in the eye
I wonder why I wear it anyway
Another car drives by
I wonder where you are
The kids are all in bed
And everything but you is in its place
[ Lyrics from: http://www.cloverlyrics.com/e128284-little_big_town~sugar_coat_lyrics.html ]
[Pre-Chorus]
From the street view lookin' in
It's pretty as a picture
Our home sweet home

[Chorus]
Sometimes I wish I liked drinkin'
Sometimes I wish I liked pills
Wish I could sleep with a stranger
But someone like me never will
Sometimes I hardly can stand it
I just smile with a lump in my throat
Sometimes I wish I could bear it
Didn't have to wear this sugar coat

[Verse 2]
Passed down from my mom
She wore it so well
She'd rest it on my shoulders
Say it's colder out there than you think

[Pre-Chorus]
Would I recognize myself?
Would anybody else
If I took the damn thing off
And burned it?

[Chorus]
Sometimes I wish I liked drinkin'
Sometimes I wish I liked pills
Wish I could sleep with a stranger
But someone like me never will
Sometimes I hardly can stand it
I just smile with a lump in my throat
Sometimes I wish I could bear it
Didn't have to wear this sugar coat

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, this damn sugar coat

[Bridge]
In one of these nights I'll meet you in the driveway
And tell you to go to hell
Go to hell

[Chorus]
Sometimes I wish I liked drinkin'
Sometimes I wish I liked pills
Wish I could sleep with a stranger
But someone like me never will
Sometimes I hardly can stand it
I just smile with a lump in my throat
Sometimes I wish I could bear it
Didn't have to wear this sugar coat

[Outro]
This damn sugar coat
Oh, this sugar coat
This damn sugar coat
