Humble Me

Norah Jones

went out on a limb

gone too far

broken down at the side of the road

stranded at the outskirts and sun's creepin' up



baby's in the backseat

still fast asleep

dreamin' of better days

i don't want to call you but you're all i have to turn to



what do you say

when it's all gone away

baby i didn't mean to hurt you

truth spoke in whispers will tear you apart

no matter how hard you resist it

it never rains when you want it to



you humble me lord

humble me lord

i'm on my knees empty

you humble me lord

you humble me lord

please please please forgive me



baby teresa got your eyes

i see you all the time

when she asks about her daddy

i never know what to say



heard you locked the bottle

and helped to build the church

you carry an honest wage

is it true you have someone keeping you company



what do you say

when it's all gone away

baby i didn't mean to hurt you

truth spoke in whispers will tear you apart

no matter how hard you resist it

it never rains when you want it to



you humble me lord

humble me lord

i'm on my knees empty

you humble me lord

you humble me lord

please please please forgive me
