From the day we met, I was never the same
You were the mascot at the football game
Big brown eyes in a Wildcat suit
Hugging your knees outside the classroom

Favorite child of a single mother
I loved you more than a boyfriend, more than a brother
The way you drove yourself to church every Sunday
We swore we'd make it out of this town one day

(Landon) and I called you a sinner
(Landon) ain't no sin bigger
And there ain't one damn thing wrong with you
(Landon) as far as I can tell
(Landon) no, there ain't no Hell
Much worse than the one I put you through
I knew nothing about love
Landon

Well, you carried your cards close to your vest
And you buried your heart inside your chest
And you hid it from the ones that loved you best
'Cause you knew none of us could pass that test

(Landon) and then I called you a sinner
(Landon) ain't no sin bigger
And there ain't one damn thing wrong with you
(Landon) as far as I can tell
(Landon) no, there ain't no Hell
Much worse than the one we put you through
What were we so afraid of? Landon

I was afraid of that word
Afraid of all I'd heard
Afraid of that phone call
I was afraid I never knew you at all

So I called you a sinner
Ain't no sin bigger
And there ain't one damn thing wrong with you
(Landon) I know I can't make amends
(Landon) but believe me, I'm still your friend
And I know I owe you the truth
I miss you so much, Landon
(And I called you a sinner, ain't no sin bigger)
Landon
(And I called you a sinner, ain't no sin bigger)
Landon
(And I called you a sinner, ain't no sin bigger)
Landon
