I grab your hand you let go,
You shake your head and say 'no',
I feel my voice collapse with my hopes,
You turn your back and time slows oh,
You leave the bar,
I leave my drink and my coat where they are,
And follow you on to the street,
You turn around look at the ground,
And say ?don?t follow when I leave?,
Okay?
You said ?you love me? oh,
That I could trust you oh,
You?d never leave me oh,
After all we got through oh,
I took my chances oh,
Strayed all my bounders oh,
But you don?t need me oh,
Better off without me oh,
I chase the rain down the window,
You?re all I see wherever I go,
You?re all I see even with my eyes closed,
Hidden memories in magazines enclosed in photos at home,
You?re in my sleep, in my day-dreams, in a crowded street or on my own,
While I can?t eat I bet you sleep with someone?s heat against your bones,
But?
You said ?you love me? oh,
That I could trust you oh,
You?d never leave me oh,
After all we got through oh,
I took my chances oh,
Strayed all my bounders oh,
But you don?t need me oh,
Better off without me oh,
I don?t see you for some time,
Yet, every day you?re still in my mind,
I?m moving forward no longer the tortured by the person that you ar-r-r-re-e,
I met someone new, yes, they?re not you, but I still wonder how you are,
I lie in bed and smile at my life,
Glad I saw sense in the bright lights,
It?s dark outside, I go down stairs, look at the door there?s someone
there,
I hear a knock and my heart drops, I?d recognize it anywhere,
I open the door, I see your face, there?s a pause, and then you say
?Babe?
I said ?I loved you? oh,
That you could trust me oh,
I?d never leave you oh,
If things were ugly oh,
I took my chances oh,
I strayed all your bounders oh,
But I still need you oh,
I?m nothing without you oh,
You grab my hand I let go?oh
