lyrics
Tell it to me slow
Find the breath you need to make
The choice whose life to take
Or heart you want to break
I won’t hear the words
Baby, won’t you say goodnight
Why don’t you pick up the phone
Tell me you’re home so I can sleep tonight
Instead I just lie awake and dream
Suddenly in-between the life you want and the one you can’t erase
And I, I’m fraying at the seams
Trying to keep a grasp on what we have as you can just watch it all decay
CHORUS
And I don’t hear the right doors open for the light
You won’t guide the way, You won’t guide the way
Is it worth the fight if we don’t make it through the night
You let it slip away, You let it slip away
And here we are
It doesn’t feel like it’s the end
But we are strangers once again
So close and yet so far
I want to hear the words
Baby, won’t you say hello
Look me in the eyes and tell me that you want me and me alone
I guess it’s only in my dreams
I never want to be someone who stands in front of where you want to be
And I hope that you could see that you were always free to go
I’m not the one who wanted you to leave
CHORUS
And I don’t hear the right doors open for the light
You won’t guide the way, You won’t guide the way
Is it worth the fight if we don’t make it through the night
You let it slip away
You let me slip away
Find the breath you need to make
The choice whose life to take
Or heart you want to break
I won’t hear the words
Baby, won’t you say goodnight
Why don’t you pick up the phone
Tell me you’re home so I can sleep tonight
Instead I just lie awake and dream
Suddenly in-between the life you want and the one you can’t erase
And I, I’m fraying at the seams
Trying to keep a grasp on what we have as you can just watch it all decay
CHORUS
And I don’t hear the right doors open for the light
You won’t guide the way, You won’t guide the way
Is it worth the fight if we don’t make it through the night
You let it slip away, You let it slip away
And here we are
It doesn’t feel like it’s the end
But we are strangers once again
So close and yet so far
I want to hear the words
Baby, won’t you say hello
Look me in the eyes and tell me that you want me and me alone
I guess it’s only in my dreams
I never want to be someone who stands in front of where you want to be
And I hope that you could see that you were always free to go
I’m not the one who wanted you to leave
CHORUS
And I don’t hear the right doors open for the light
You won’t guide the way, You won’t guide the way
Is it worth the fight if we don’t make it through the night
You let it slip away
You let me slip away
