Baby, I know you hate it when I call you that
|
|
But it's the only word that half-describes the way you're acting tonight
|
|
And at the restaurant
|
Where all your ghosts still haunt you just like you feared
|
Under this table, all these years they stayed
|
Waiting for your return
|
Your cigarette to burn their whole world through
|
A thousand things you thought they'd do
|
|
Everytime you call I feel worse
|
Throwing chairs
|
Stolen rings
|
Frozen air
|
|
And as I walked away I heard you say
|
"You're not the only one"
|
|
And as I watch you sleep it's hard for me
|
To keep from waking you
|
To tell you everything I did
|
And when I listen to you breathe I know exactly what you have always need
|
You wanted from me
|
|
And every time you're here it gets worse
|
Throwing chairs
|
Stolen hearts
|
Tasteless air
|
|
I waited all day at the cafe but you never came
|
But you never came
|
But you never came
|
|
And the hearts of the faithful who died on this table
|
Have left me with nothing at all to hold onto
|
At all to hold on
|
At all to hold on
|
But I want to hold on too
|
But I have got to hold on to you
|
Throwing chairs
|
Broken rings
|
Open air
|
I waited all day at the cafe but you never came
|
|
