She walks in the room
In her mind shes far away
I can see her emptiness
But I just dont feel her pain
The love is gone
The only thing she was living for
Mister Ill never leave you
Walked right out the door, Oh.
Its killing me inside
The way Ive seen her change
She writes her life story
But she cant turn the page
I hold her had, try to take her
But she pulls away
Shades go down, lights go out
Theres nothing left to say
(Chorus)
So Im singing
I want it all
but I take just a little
I feel her touch
then I need some more
We get high just to try
and relieve the pain
But a voice inside reminds me
there must be a better way, Oh.
So I leave the room
Bout halfway down the hall
I turn around, she screams out
What, you dont believe in love.
Said Ill never be
who I was when I was seventeen
Cause every time I walk away
I leave a piece of me.
~Chorus~
Now I understand
What they were trying to say
Life goes by too fast
And people change
But she just wants to be
Who she always was
But you cant change
a single thing
You might as well
look up and sing
I, I just take a little
I then I need some more
We get high to relieve the pain
But there is a voice inside me
saying youd better walk away
And I take just a little
I, oh to relieve the pain
we get high
Some things never change
But a voice inside
reminds me there must be,
Be better way
