Nothing Else I Could do

I waited up for your call

You never told me you would

But the way that you smiled was a promise, I swear

I fell asleep by the phone

I missed a message or two

Deleted them 'cause they weren't you

I wrecked my house a hundred times just to see you walk into a room

But there was money in your laugh, so babe

There's nothing else I could do

Oh babe, there's nothing else I could do (there's nothing else I could)

I miss the shape of your voice

I miss the nape of your neck

I miss the weight of your words

I miss the bruises they left

I started reading the Times

Just for look for your name

I couldn't find it

They must have made a mistake

I broke my knuckles in a fight

You were crying in the back of the room

And now the world is on fire, but babe

There's nothing else I could do

Oh babe, there's nothing else I could do (oh)

And they can dance to the songs

And they can drink all wine

Because the high might be theirs

But all the bottles were mine

And then you're crashing my car

And now I'm taking the blame

There's nothing else I could do

They must have made a mistake

Oh

Babe, they must have made a mistake

Oh

They must have made a mistake

Oh, babe there's nothing else I could do

Oh, babe there's nothing else I could do

There's nothing else I could
