(Verse 1)

You stroke my cheek, but there's no smile

You say it can’t be like this anymore

One last kiss would be too much to ask, so I

I just watch as you finally close the door

(Pre-Chorus 1)

I really should be going

But I'm stuck ‘cause you're still holding

Me frozen with the things you left behind

I know I can’t be hoping

Even though the wind is blowing

And it reminds me of that night

(Chorus 1)

When you took my hand and you brought me close

You pulled my collar and I caught your coat

And I knew the days would show

You'd either stay or go

And your eyes caught light in a way that let me know

That would be my last chance to hold you close

(Verse 2)

I remember when you caught my eye

Something about your lack of peace of mind

You drew me in with words about your heartache

I should have known then that you would never stay

(Pre-Chorus 2)

I really should be going

But there's something you should know and

I need a chance to finally speak

That night that you first kissed me

I knew what I was risking

But I dreamt about you every night that week

(Chorus 2)

When you took my hand and you brought me close

You pulled my collar and I caught your coat

And I knew the days would show

You'd either stay or go

And your eyes caught light in a way that let me know

That would be my last chance to hold you close

(Bridge)

That day you found me smiling

Oh, you asked me why and

I said that it was nothing

But you know I was lying

And that night you said you missed me

I knew this was too risky

I asked you what you wanted

Because your heart is prone to wander

And that day that you came over

And you held me a little longer

In my heart I knew we'd go nowhere

Because your heart is prone to wander

And that day you held me closer

I knew we'd never quite have closure

I wish I could have been stronger

I knew your heart is prone to wander

(Chorus 3)

When you took my hand and you kissed me slow

You pulled my heart and I just let it go

The worst part of this yet

Is that I know I can't regret

The way it felt when the rain hit our window

And I knew that was my last chance to hold you close

(Chorus 4)

When you took my hand and you brought me close

You pulled my collar and I caught your coat

And I knew the days would show

You'd either stay or go

And your eyes caught light in a way that let me know

And you just smiled and I knew you would let go

That would be my last chance to hold you close
