Lyrics

I count the lines on the ceiling, lyin? here in this bed.
There are no words between us, just this voice in my head.
Oh, how you loved me but I guess that?s yesterday?s news.
If only I could make you feel the way I do.

I count the night we?ve been stealing, hidin? here in this bed.
Still I can?t fight the feeling I?ve been dreaming instead.
You know I still love you and that?ll always be true.
But I?ve gotta leave in the morning, I?ve my whole life to do.

I?ll have to cry.
I?ll have to mend.
I?ll have to pick myself up and start all over again.
If you won?t take me back,
You?ve gotta show me how
To leave well enough alone For Now.

Now I throw back the covers.
I watch them fall to the floor.
I fold my arms close around you.
I?m not cold anymore.
I can still feel your heartbeat though your mind is miles away.
Maybe it?s the angels swearing you?ll be back some day?
Maybe I?ll be back some day?
I?ll have to cry.
You?ll have to try?
I?ll have to mend.
?to say goodbye.
I?ll have to pick myself up and start all over again.
?pick yourself up?all over again.
If you won?t take me back,
If you really love me,
You?ve gotta show me how
To leave well enough alone For Now.

In your eyes no remark?
Just two flames in the dark?
If I?d only known it?
I could?ve told you?
Right from the start.
