| We drank bottled water together and talked business.
|
| I think I played the right moves.
|
| You were lookin' over my shoulder,
|
| as I went through the motions of another night,
|
| And it was alright,
|
| 'cause I thought I knew who everybody was just by lookin' at them.
|
| My heart is anywhere but here,
|
| and how tired I was from the past couple of weeks,
|
| From the past couple of years.
|
| Well, it hit me all at once,
|
| On a balcony overlooking nothing,
|
| With snow falling all around,
|
| Well I, I called just to say «Goodnight».
|
| And you hadn’t done anything wrong,
|
| And know, really, really, it’s me not you.
|
| I can’t believe how naive I was to think things could ever be so simple,
|
| And can you live with what you know about yourself,
|
| When you’re all alone, behind closed doors?
|
| The things we never said, but we always knew were right there.
|
| It’s got me on my knees in a bathroom,
|
| Praying to a God that I don’t even believe in,
|
| «Well, dear Jesus, are you listening?
|
| If this is the one chance that really matters,
|
| Well, don’t let me fuck this up.
|
| If you’d told me about all this when I was fifteen,
|
| I never would have believed it.» |
