All these lights are blinding me Steady reminding me I'm on my own, headed home And I'm thinking about you These days it's all that I do I keep on hoping that I'll write a better song And you'll call me when you hear it And tell me you were wrong But the phone, it never rings The words, they never come to me it seems If what you said was true I guess we're doomed There's nothing left for me to say To try to prove that I love you But I just can't love you that way You never wanted me the way I was You always tried to change me But you could never save me How many evenings can a man spend alone Before he's lost inside himself again Chasing what he knows Is the reason for that feeling Of not feeling anything at all And the truth is all it'd take for me Is one word and a smile To be right back in that place between love and denial But I swear that it'd be better Than sitting here alone and missing you If what you said was true I guess we're doomed There's nothing left for me to say To try to prove that I love you But I just can't love you that way You never wanted me the way I was You always tried to change me But you could never save me
