Wasting Away

Let's not talk about it late night
Something tells me that you wanted more from me
Than I could give you, girl I know

We've never been so far apart
Baby what you know about the reason for my silence

Don't you look me in my eyes
Girl I promise you won't like what you see
Tell me what you really know about me
I promise you won't know a thing

But you know what you came for
You're missing the attention
And I know that you're feeling the tension tonight

Tell me how you feel
Even if I ain't the only one to hold you when you're feeling down
Even if the pain stops when I ain't around, baby please
Don't act like you've been somebody worth keeping
You're just lying to yourself, baby

Open my eyes, show me what I've done
Turn down the lights, let's just live until we see the sun
But you won't be there beside me, I know
The tides are bound to change late night without you

Girl you don't know a thing about me
I never meant to make you cry
Just try to believe me
Because I don't know how to tell you that I won't be back tomorrow

And I noticed you don't mind
Don't you worry (no don't you worry for me)
Life passes us by
Quicker than we held it
And the nights they don't lie,
We stay wasting away

Wasted it baby, the chance that you'd stay the night
It's just too late to make things right, my dear

Open my eyes, show me what I've done
Turn down the lights, let's just live until we see the sun
