Long Enough to Leave

You've been picking up this empty house Washing your hands clean of everything That has to do with me Except for the pillow and the sheets Laying in the floor next to the bed That never got any sleep And you can still feel last night inside Your heart was breaking open wide I can't stay with you as long as you want me Stay with you even though i should Listen to me when i tell you i said some things you misunderstood You know that i don't want to hurt you i'm trying to make you see I'll only stay with you long enough to leave I've been making a mess of what you gave me Watching the exit signs as they fly by There keeping me from the truth Because i left an empty suitcase full of promises i could never keep Cause that's more than i can do And i can still hear the sound of your voice And both we know i don't have a choice I can't stay with you as long as you want me Stay with you even though i should Listen to me when i tell you i said some things you misunderstood You know that i don't want to hurt you I'm trying to make you see I'll only stay with you long enough to leave You'll have to let me go for now But hold on tight girl and i'll come back around And i'll stay with you as long as you want me Stay with you cause you know i should you listen to me when i tell you I said some things you misunderstood You know that i don't want to hurt you I'm trying to make you see I'll only stay with you long enough to leave Yeah i'll only stay with you long enough to leave
