I look at the way you move, the things you do
I can't get away from you, you've cut right through and left me reeling
Just with a look you take this pain and make it slide away
A hint of your smile, you leave me wide awake, am I awake right now?

I want you, I need you, I just can't live without you
Wish I could close my eyes and go on
I tried to believe you, it's like you never really cared
Just fading shadows on the walls

I followed the signs you traced on broken roads
I swallowed the pills you left to quiet out your voice that's in my head
I think of the nights we gave our love away, I wish you'd stayed
Just think of that night and lie here wide awake, am I awake right now?

I want you, I need you, I just can't live without you
Wish I could close my eyes and go on
I tried to believe you, it's like you never really cared
Just fading shadows on the walls

Of all the ghosts locked in my head, you were the best
You're haunting a lifetime I'll never know
The words left unsaid, the kiss of regret
And chasing a lifeline we'll never own
The promises unkept, the scars that hurt the most

I want you, I need you, I just can't live without you
Wish I could close my eyes and go on
I tried to believe you, it's like you never really cared
Just fading shadows on the walls
