lyrics

I don't want to close my eyes, no I can't sleep
I don't want to close my eyes without you here next to me

cause there's a secret I've been keeping
beneath these pillows where we don't do much sleeping
and it's steeped in bitterness it's wrapped in lies
because truth will wear the liar's disguise

every time I said I love you
what I meant was I need you
cause this loneliness is something that will really deceive you
and every time I said I need you
what I meant was don't go
I just don't want to do this alone

All good stories end with him and her in love again
But you won't wait and I'll be late
You won't wait and I'll be late
Maybe it's just fate/Let's just call it fate

I could not have known How this story would go
When I took that walk across the lake of drifting snow

cause there's a secret I've been keeping
beneath these pillows where we don't do much sleeping
and it's steeped in bitterness it's wrapped in lies
because truth will wear the liar's disguise

every time I said I love you
what I meant was I need you
cause this loneliness is something that will really deceive you
and every time I said I need you
what I meant was don't go
I just don't want to do this alone

All good stories end with him and her in love again
But you won't wait and I'll be late
You won't wait and I'll be late
Maybe it's just fate/Let's just call it fate
