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 |
