I see you bite your bottom lip
Can you feel my kisses on your hips?
I almost hear you catch your breath
My ghost is whispering in your head
‘No… you’re not home…’
I’m on a fire escape
Where you said to wait
And I did, yes I did
I heard the cold wind say
‘You’re a fool to stay’
But I did, yes I did
No…you’re not my home
No matter how my heart tries
I’m not too blind to realize
That when I’m free from the grip of this life
You wont be there by my side
No…you’re not home
I’m on a fire escape
Where you said to wait
And I did, yes I did
I heard the cold wind say
‘You’re a fool to stay’
But I did, yes I did
No…you’re not my home
No... you're not my home
I’m on a fire escape
Where you said to wait
And I did, yes I did
I heard the cold wind say
‘You’re a fool to stay’
But I did, yes I did
I’m on a fire escape
Where you said to wait
And I did, yes I did
I heard the cold wind say
‘You’re a fool to stay’
But I did, yes I did
No…you’re not my home
No... you're not my home
No... you're not my home
Every word I wanted to sing
Got replaced with a wedding ring
