Baby, I know you hate it When I call you that But it's the only word That half-describes The way you're acting tonight And at the restaurant Where all your ghosts still haunt you Just like you feared Under this table All these years they stayed Waiting for your return Your cigarette to burn Their whole world through A thousand things You thought they'd do Everytime you call I feel worse Throwing chairs Stolen rings Frozen air And as I walked away I heard you say: "You're not the only one" And as I watch you sleep It's hard for me To keep from waking you To tell you everything I did And when I listen to you breathe I know exactly what you've always need You wanted it from me And every time you're here It gets worse Throwing chairs Stolen hearts Tasteless air I've been waiting all day At the cafe But you never came But you never came But you never came And the hearts of the faithful Who died on this table Have left me with nothing At all to hold on to At all to hold on At all to hold on But I want to hold on to But I've got to hold on to you Throwing chairs Broken rings Open air I've been waiting all day At the cafe But you never came
