The Other Side of the Door
I walked away
Ignoring words that you were saying
Tryna make me stay
I said, �This time I had enough�
And you�ve called a hundred times
But I�m not pickin� up
�Cause I�m so mad,
I might tell you that it�s over
But if you look a little closer
I said, �Leave,� but all I really want is you
To stand outside my window
Throwing pebbles, screaming,
�I�m in love with you�
Wait there in the pourin� rain,
Come back for more
And don�t you leave,
�Cause I know all I need is on
The other side of the door
Me and my stupid pride
Sittin� here, alone
Going through the photographs
Staring at the phone
I keep going back over
Things we both said
And I remember the slammin� door
And all the things that I misread
So babe, if you know everything
Tell me why you couldn�t see
That when I left I wanted you to
Chase after me?
Yeah
I said, �Leave,� but all I really want is you
To stand outside my window
Throwing pebbles, screaming,
�I�m in love with you�
Wait there in the pourin� rain,
Come back for more
And don�t you leave,
�Cause I know all I need is on
The other side of the door
And I scream out the window
�I can�t even look at you, I don�t need you,�
But I do, I do, I do.
I say, �there�s nothing you can say
To make right again, I mean it, I mean it�
What I mean is
I said, �Leave,�
But baby all I want is you
To stand outside my window
Throwing pebbles, screaming,
�I�m in love with you�
Wait there in the pourin� rain,
Come back for more
And don�t you leave,
�Cause I know all I need is on
The other side of the door
With your face
And the beautiful eyes
And the conversation
With the little white lies
And the faded picture
Of a beautiful night
You carried me from your car
Up the stairs
And I�m broke-down cryin�
Was she worth this mess?
After everything
And that little black dress
After everything, I must confess
I need you
