We drank bottled water together and talked business
I think I played the right moves
You were looking over my shoulder
As I went through the motions of another night
And it was alright
Cause I thought I knew who everybody was just by looking at them
My heart is anywhere but here
And how tired I was from the past couple of weeks
From the past couple of years
Well, it hit me all at once
On a balcony overlooking nothing
With snow falling all around
Well I, I called just to say "Goodnight"
And you hadn't done anything wrong
And know, really, really, it's me not you
I can't believe how naive I was to think things could ever be so simple
And can you live with what you know about yourself
When you're all alone, behind closed doors?
The things we never said, but we always knew were right there
It's got me on my knees in a bathroom
Praying to a God that I don't even believe in
"Well, dear Jesus, are you listening?"
If this is the one chance that really matters
Well, don't let me fuck this up
If you'd told me about all this when I was fifteen
I never would have believed it
I think I played the right moves
You were looking over my shoulder
As I went through the motions of another night
And it was alright
Cause I thought I knew who everybody was just by looking at them
My heart is anywhere but here
And how tired I was from the past couple of weeks
From the past couple of years
Well, it hit me all at once
On a balcony overlooking nothing
With snow falling all around
Well I, I called just to say "Goodnight"
And you hadn't done anything wrong
And know, really, really, it's me not you
I can't believe how naive I was to think things could ever be so simple
And can you live with what you know about yourself
When you're all alone, behind closed doors?
