A quoted clever line like hope I'll take the final words you wrote To make them feel like bliss As always as I'll take the praise I have a way with making things Scripted like a song that makes you sting I need you here with me So here's a heart to heart On the back of postcards in from California Remember when I said Just stay, you're what you are I know you hate the feeling when I walk away When I'm without you I'm not the man that I knew I can be Because your not here with me You can break my heart open And ruin my epic ending You hand like a noose around my neck But the next time you say "Promise me" I'll make One for myself to always stay what I am I need you here with me So here's a heart to heart On the back of postcards in from California When I'm without you I'm not the man that I knew I can be Because your not here with me I need you here with me So here's a heart to heart On the back of postcards in from California When I'm without you I'm not the man that I knew I can be Remember when I said Just stay, you're what you are I know you hate the feeling when I walk away When I'm without you I'm not the man that I knew I can be Because your not here with me
