Lyrics
Mmm... oh... I never said it plain Sixteen at the roller rink, skates a size too wide I did the talking, you kept the time Borrowed uniforms, a photo-booth strip Every joke I told, you laughed on cue I always found the spotlight Never looked at who was clapping in the dark Thank you, thank you You were holding me up all along Through my loud and through my wrong Every silence, every song You were holding me up all along You took the job three states away I said I didn't mind Let your calls ring out for two long years Your life looked big, and mine felt small Then midnight lit your name up on my nightstand I drove four hours, diner keys still in my pocket, radio low Two mismatched mugs on the back step at dawn I said the jealous thing out loud You just said, I know, and stayed Thank you, thank you You were holding me up all along Through my loud and through my wrong Every silence, every song You were holding me up all along Now your picture hangs above the register Two girls in borrowed uniforms I'm pouring coffee for the early crowd And I say it to the empty room Thank you... Thank you, thank you You were holding me up all along Through my loud and through my wrong Every silence, every song You were holding me up You were holding me up You were holding me up all along Thank you... oh, thank you All along
