She walks in the room In her mind she's far away I can see her emptiness But I just don't feel her pain The love is gone The only thing she was living for Mister I'll never leave you Walked right out the door, Oh. It's k**ing me inside The way I've seen her change She writes her life story But she can't turn the page I hold her had, try to take her But she pulls away Shades go down, lights go out There's nothing left to say [Chorus] So I'm 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 don't believe in love. Said I'll 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 can't 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 you'd 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.
