Lurking in the doorway, I hear you talking on the phone to someone else
I shouldn't listen, it's my prison
I stand my guard and watch it melt away like hangovers
Nothing sucks like getting sober
This has gotta be a dream
But I can't wake up
Drinking at the party and I'm starting to get nauseous
Thinking of you and all those nights that I should've stayed awake, stayed awake
I never promised you that I'd ever stop loving you
As time passes by, I feel time pass me by
How long is forever at the edge of the world?
How long is forever on my last night on earth?
So kiss me on the lips so briefly
On the phone tell me you love me
Like you did that night when there was tears in both our eyes
And I said, "It doesn't have to be this way, it doesn't have to be this way"
But what if it has to be this way?
(It doesn't have to be this way)
And I swear I'm coming back, coming back someday
(Does it have to be this way? It doesn't have to be this way)
She said she's coming back, she's never coming back
Maybe I could say hello to the black haired girl I used to know
But there's nothing to say, just keep me in mind
Maybe I could say hello to the black haired girl I used to know
But it's all on me to say goodbye
