Been counting days since you left me here
(Oh yeah oh yeah)
Your silence cutting like a blade so clear
Every message that I never send
(La la la la)
Wonder if this longing ever gonna end
Tell me baby
My heart keeps calling out your name
(Calling out calling out)
But you keep playing these games
(Why you play why you play)
Why you stay away from me
(Why you stay why you stay)
When you know I need you desperately
Why you stay away from me
(Tell me why tell me why)
Can't you see I'm begging on my knees
Your perfume still lives on my pillow case
(Still there still there)
Close my eyes and see your pretty face
Memories dancing in my restless mind
(La la la la)
Searching for the love I'll never find
Without you
My heart keeps calling out your name
(Calling out calling out)
But you keep playing these games
(Why you play why you play)
Why you stay away from me
(Why you stay why you stay)
When you know I need you desperately
Why you stay away from me
(Tell me why tell me why)
Can't you see I'm begging on my knees
Look I been thinking about the way we used to be
Dancing in the kitchen just you and me
Now I'm staring at these walls they closing in
Wondering when this pain is gonna end
You took my sunshine when you walked away
Left me in the rain with nothing left to say
But I keep hoping that you'll come back home
'Cause without you girl I'm lost and so alone
Every night I pray you'll change your mind
Leave the past behind and press rewind
Take me back to when we had it all
Before we let our pride make us fall
I've been writing letters that I'll never send
(Why you gotta be so far)
Hoping that this loneliness will someday end
(Baby come back to my arms)
Tell me what I gotta do to make you see
That you belong right here with me
Why you stay away from me
(Why you stay why you stay)
When you know I need you desperately
Why you stay away from me
(Tell me why tell me why)
Can't you see I'm begging on my knees
Why you stay away
(Oh yeah oh yeah)
Why you stay away from me
(La la la la)
Come back to me baby
(Come back come back)
