Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I'm packin' my bags that I didn't unpack the last time

I'm sayin', "See you again" so many times, it's becomin' my tag line

But you know the truth, I'd rather hold you

Than try to catch this flight

So many things I'd rather say

But for now, it's goodbye

[PreChorus]

You say I'm always leavin'

You, when you're sleepin' alone

But the, the car's outside

But I don't wanna go tonight

[Chorus]

I'm not gettin' in the Addison Lee

Unless you pack your bags

You're comin' with me

I'm tired of lovin' from afar

And never being where you are

Close the windows, lock the doors

Don't wanna leave you anymore

[Verse 2]

I'm starin' at the same four walls in a different hotel

It's an unfamiliar feeling, but I know it so well

Oh, but you know the truth, I'd rather hold you

Than this mobile in my hand

But I guess it'll do

'Cause for you, I would run up my phone bill

[PreChorus]

You say I'm always leavin'

You, when you need me the most, but the

The car's outside

But I don't wanna go tonight

[Chorus]

I'm not gettin' in the Addison Lee

Unless you pack your bags

You're comin' with me

I'm tired of lovin' from afar

And never being where you are

Close the windows, lock the doors

Don't wanna leave you anymore

[PostChorus]

Ooh-ooh, ah

Ooh-ooh, ah

Ooh-ooh, ah

Don't wanna leave you anymore

[Bridge]

Oh, darling, all of the city lights

Never shine as bright as your eyes

I would trade them all for a minute more

But the car's outside

And he's called me twice

But he's gonna have to wait tonight

[Chorus]

I'm not gettin' in the Addison Lee

Unless you pack your bags

You're comin' with me

I'm tired of lovin' from afar

And never being where you are

Close the windows, lock the doors

Don't wanna leave you anymore

[Outro]

Ooh-ooh, ah

Ooh-ooh, ah

Ooh-ooh, ah

No, I don't wanna leave you anymore

I don't wanna leave you

I don't wanna leave you

I don't wanna leave you

Don't wanna leave you anymore
