You say you love me, but will you bring me roses, my baby?

As time passes us by, will you stand by my side or keep me waiting?

Should've tried right from the start

Can I mend your broken heart, my baby?

If you don't say goodbye, then I won't have to try

Just keep me waiting

Only the lonely feel the way I'm feelin'

Tie in our loose end

Tried my best but I just can't think clear, dear, with you here

It caught me by surprise and opened up my eyes

Some kind of new fear

Couldn't stay, was out of place

Outside lines I couldn't trace with you here

If I just bite my tongue

Forget how far we've come

Just leads us nowhere

Only the lonely feel the way I'm feelin'

Tie in our loose end

We've never been the type to call in favors

Well maybe it'd be cold enough for two

Don't know where we are but I can't stay here

Pretending 'cause it's easier to do
