In the heat of the fight;
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
The things we both said.
And i remember the slammin' door,
And all the things that i misread.
Baby you know everything,
Tell me why you couldn't see
That when i left i wanted you to
Chase after me?

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.
See, there's nothing you can say
To make right again, i mean it,
I mean it
What i mean is

I said, "leave," baby 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.

With your face, and your beautiful eyes,
And the conversation,
With the little white lies.
And the faded picture
Of a beautiful night
You carry me from your car
Up the stairs
And i'm broke-down cryin'
Wish we weren't this messed,
After everything in that little black dress
After everything, i must confess,
I need you
