Staying close but I gotta breathe Running in circles until I've gotta leave Stay here please I know you have to go Nights like these I wish time could slow Hold the door is there anymore Reasons you've gotta leave I just need to know Please ignore my eager heart I know it's time for your depart So if you could let me know If this could ever go anywhere I promise that I'll watch you go While I pretend I don't care Wondering, was it my fault? That there's a part of me that can't explain Anything that I want for you Or for me I don't know it's too hard to see Between the lines of the words you say Or the things you do I don't know if I can go Through with it this time I see you and now you're Finding someone new for you this time And I pretend that I'm gonna be okay And I say that I'm fine every time So if you could let me know If this could ever go anywhere I promise that I'll watch you go Well, I pretend I don't care So if you could let me know If this could ever go anywhere I promise that I'll watch you go While I pretend I don't care
