Lyrics
3am, awake again
Can't get you off my mind
Bed's so cold, I'm too old
To start all over again
Oh how I miss the warmth of your sweet company
Trapped in a cold day in December
If you don't come back to me
Say you didn't mean it, say it isn't true
Say you never meant to say that our love was through
Say it was a story, say it was a lie
Tell me anything you like but don't tell me goodbye
Went back to my hometown
Bad case of deja news
Girl stops daddy leaving home
By hiding all of his shoes
It didn't work with you though
I guess I should have known
Fairy tales just don't come true
When you're fully grown
Say you didn't mean it, say it isn't true
Say you never meant to say that our love was through
Say it was a story, say it was a lie
Tell me anything you like but don't tell me goodbye
