trying to erase the memories
of how it all began
sifting away emotions from reality
how did it all get so out of hand
how could i know any better
i didn't even feel my dependance grow
oh yeah, believe me
when you wanted to leave me
i just let you go
for so many nights i lay awake
i realised i needed you
but ooh, you were so far away
i didn't know, i didn't know how to reach you
and then you called me
you wanted to know how i was getting along
and both of us meant it
across all those miles we felt it
that to let each other go was wrong
and i want you to know
that i can't wait anymore
i'll keep you safe in my arms tonight
and i know deep inside
i've never felt this way before
i'm asking you to stay
don't turn and walk away
how could i know any better
i didn't even feel my dependance grow
oh yeah, believe me
when you wanted to leave me
i should have never let you go
and i want you to know
that i can't wait anymore
can't you see we're running out of time
and i know deep inside
i've never felt this way before
don't keep me hanging on
please show me a sign
