In the heat of the fight I walked away
Ignoring words that you were saying
Trying to make me stay
I said, 'This time I've had enough'
And you've called a hundred times
But I'm not picking up
Cause I'm so mad I might tell you that it's over
But if you look a little closer

I'll still 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 pouring [bad word] 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, sitting here alone
I'm going through the photographs
Staring at the phone
I keep going back over, things that let us down
And I remember the slamming door
And all the things that I misread
So baby if you know everything
Tell me why you couldn't see
That when I left I wanted you to chase after me

Yeah, I'll still 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 pouring [bad word] back for more
And don't you leave cause I know
All I need is on the other side of the door

And I'll scream at 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 this right again'
I mean it, I mean it, what I mean I

I'll still 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 pouring [bad word] 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 carry me from your car to the stairs
And I broke down crying, wish it weren't this mess
After everything and that little black dress
After everything I must confess, I need you
