A Story To Tell Your Friends

It was the type of feeling that can't be explained

The way she moved her lips drove me insane

Now I'm left here in the wake of something more.

She made it hard to leave as she stood by the door

In a v-neck T-shirt and nothing more than

A single tear rolling down her cheek, whoa

Don't go away again,

I want to be more than a phone call at 4am.

Seems like every time you come back home

It's just to steal my heart and leave.

Don't go away again,

I want to be more than a story to tell your friends.

Seems like every time you come back home

It's just to make me fall again.

It's getting hard, I know, believe me I feel you

I can't fall asleep knowing you're not home

Is it too much to ask, can't you just pick up the phone?

We've had our share of fights,

I know it's not easy when I'm never home,

I have my own dreams

Like you have your life planned out back home

Don't go away again,

I want to be more than a phone call at 4am.

Seems like every time you come back home

It's just to steal my heart and leave.

Don't go away again,

I want to be more than a story to tell your friends.

Seems like every time you come back home

It's just to make me fall again.

And I, will always stand between us

And hold you so high

Just enough to watch you fade

Tonight you'll cry yourself asleep

As I lay awake in some far off city

Pretend you're lying next to me

Eyes wide open dreaming of you

Don't go away again,

I want to be more than a phone call at 4am.

Seems like every time you come back home

It's just to steal my heart and leave.

Don't go away again,

I want to be more than a phone call at 4am.

Seems like every time you come back home

It's just to steal my heart and leave.

Don't go away again,

I want to be more than a story to tell your friends.

Seems like every time you come back home

It's just to make me fall again.
