Why do we aching inside
Both of us hold on to our foolish pride
Holding on knowing it's over
Almost afraid to move

Those angry words tonight
We turned the love out with the light
And it's too late to make it right
For me to stay

But when the morning comes
Before it's done
And I turn to walk away
I'll wake you up
And love you back to sleep

Lying here lost in the feeling
Hearing you breathing next to me
Needing you
Wanting you closer
Before it slips away

The things I leave behind
Will always echo in my mind
So I'll just take a little time
To say good-bye
And when the morning comes
Before it's done
And I turn to walk away

Here's one promise I intend to keep
I'll wait until the feeling's warm and deep
Then wake you up and love you back to sleep
Before I go

Here's one promise I intend to keep
I'll wait until the feeling's warm and deep
Then wake you up and love you back to sleep
Before I go
