Why Did We Wait?

Why can’t we finish what we started Oh, if you love me what’s the problem And why did we wait until the world started burning We could have saved it, but we left each other hurting You told me you love me Told me you need me Said that you mean it I gave you a promise I’ll never leave but I’m nowhere near you now Why can’t we talk about what went wrong Cause you, make it seem like I’m the problem And why were we holding on to something that was burning Couldn’t we tell that it would only leave us hurting When you said that you loved me Said that you need me Did you really mean it And I promise I miss you I don’t wanna leave you I wanna be near you now How can I stand outside another window singing all the songs that I wrote for you How can I drive all night just screaming love songs at the top of my lungs with someone new When you said that you loved me Said you need me Did you really mean it I gave you a promise I’ll never leave but I’m nowhere near you now
