I close the door
Like so many times, so many times before
Filmed like a scene on the cutting room floor
I wanna let you walk away tonight without a word
I try to sleep, yeah
But the clock is stuck on thoughts of you and me
A thousand more regrets unraveling, oh
If you were here right now
I swear I'd tell you this
Baby, I don't wanna waste another day
Keeping it inside is killing me
'Cause all I ever wanted
Comes right down to you, to you
I wish that I could find the words to say
Baby, I would tell you
Every time you leave I'm inconsolable
I climb the walls, yeah
I can see the edge, but I can't take the fall, no
I've memorized the number
So why can't I make the call?
Maybe 'cause I know you will always be with me
In the possibility, oh, oh
Baby, I don't wanna waste another day (another day)
Keeping it inside is killing me
'Cause all I ever wanted
Comes right down to you, to you
I wish that I could find the words to say
Baby, I would tell you
Every time you leave I'm inconsolable (oh, no, no, no)
I don't wanna be like this
I just wanna let you now
That everything that I hold in
Is everything I can't let go
Oh, oh, oh, I can't let go, yeah
'Cause baby I don't wanna waste another day (waste another day)
Keeping it inside is killing me (is killing me 'cause)
'Cause all I ever wanted (all I ever wanted)
Comes right down to you (to you), to you (to you)
I wish that I could find the words to say
Baby, I would tell you
Every time you leave I'm inconsolable (no)
Don't you know it baby?
I don't wanna waste another day
I wish that I could find the words to say
Baby, I would tell you
Every time you leave I'm inconsolable
Yeah, yeah (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Oh, I'm inconsolable
Oh, yeah, oh
I'm inconsolable (yeah)
