[VERSE 1]
I look at you and I wonder why
You couldn't be steady easy free
Like this kick drum even if the chords change
[VERSE 2]
Oh I don't wanna do a solo
I just wanna be John and Yoko
Kissing on the cover of that record
[PRE-Chorus 1]
Cause without you I'm talking to myself again
Then I vocode my words and pretend it's you
And I turn blue and this is what I hear
[Chorus]
Can you hear me?
Listen closely
Promise me that you'll try to understand
I wanna love you
God I love you
I wanna love you but I have to go away
[VERSE 3]
I wake up cold in the middle of the night
I lost my cool, I think you knew
Said "I need love" then started crying in your bed
[VERSE 4]
How could you leave with pieces of me?
I just wanted to be your honey
Why did you pour salt in my sugar
[PRE-Chorus 2]
Cause without you I'm talking to myself again
Then I turn blue and this is what I hear
[Chorus]
Can you hear me?
Listen closely
Promise me that you'll try to understand
I wanna love you
God I love you
I wanna love you but I have to go away
[Chorus]
Can you hear me?
Listen closely
Promise me that you'll try to understand
I wanna love you
God I love you
I wanna love you but I have to go away
[BRIDGE 1]
Everything we wanted
I know I let you down...
[BRIDGE 1]
Everything we wanted
I know I let you down...
[BRIDGE 1]
Everything we wanted
I know I let you down...
[BRIDGE 2]
Everything we wanted
I know I
Know I
Know I
Know...
[Chorus]
Can you hear me?
Listen closely
Promise me that you'll try to understand
I wanna love you
God I love you
I wanna love you but I have to go away
[Chorus]
Can you hear me?
Listen closely
Promise me that you'll try to understand
I wanna love you
God I love you
I wanna love you but I have to go away
[OUTRO]
I have to go away...
And I have to go away...
And I have to go away...
And I have to go away...
And I have to go away...
And I have to go away...
I have to go away...
I have to go away...
I have to go away...
I have to go away...
I have to go away...
Yeah I have to go...
