I count the steps from where I am to where I started
I tap my feet and close the door to your apartment
And I know you’re never gonna understand

It’s too late for you to stop and think, too late to mention
I make a move and spill my drink to break the tension
And I know you’re never gonna understand

I’ll try my best to follow if I can
But I would have let you leave
I would have let you leave
I would have let you leave

The static waves across the screen define this notion
The back and forth and in between, like my emotion
And I know you’re never gonna understand
And won’t you slow this down, oh, if you can?

You swayed your hips and stole the breathe that I was taking
I touched your lips and held your hands when they were shaking
Look how we’ve fallen upon our knees, how we forgot it
These empty halls held our disease before we caught it
Now out the door and down the stairs from your apartment
I would have let you leave

The static waves across the screen define this notion
Back and forth and in between, like my emotion
Now out the door and down the stairs from your apartment
I count the steps from where I am to where I started
I would have let you, I would have let you, I would have let you
I would have let you leave
