From the moment the lights went off Everything had changed Lie awake in an empty room In my head it all feels the same
Like the taste of the day you left It still lingers on my breath And the dampness of tears that left That stain where you had wept
All alone with the negligee That still hangs off of my bed I keep meaning to give it away But I just leave it there instead
[Chorus:] No need to cry about it I cannot live without it Every time I wind up back at your door Why do you do this to me? You penetrate right through me Every time I wind up back at your door
3 more days til I see your face I'm afraid it's far too much Cook a meal and fix up the place Dial your number, hang it up
If I took you for granted I apologise for acting tough You're my reason for living And there's no way I'm giving up, oh
[Chorus]
Now every evening is a bitter fight And I'm eating home alone on a Friday night And I know what your friends say "He's just wasting your love and time" I will never let you change your mind
