The Goodnight Kiss

Don't say goodnight

and walk away without that kiss that you owe me

Don't (don't) close your eyes (your eyes)

and say you don't want me, I wish that you'd want me now



You know that I promised, I'd always have an ear for you to lend,

but now your syllables are phrases I don't understand



Calling out in desperation

Fighting off this suffocation

Screaming out loud

wanting so bad to be heard



Don't say goodnight

and walk away without that kiss that you owe me

Don't (don't) close your eyes (your eyes)

and say you don't want me, I wish that you'd want me now



When the days ends and you're cold from standing out alone

The only voice of recognition is your own

Crying out in desperation

begging to be heard,

but only you can hear your words



You know that I promised, I'd always have an ear for you to lend

You know that I promised...



Calling out in desperation

Fighting off this suffocation

Screaming out loud

wanting so bad to be heard



Don't say goodnight

and walk away without that kiss that you owe me

Don't (don't) close your eyes (your eyes)

and say you don't want me, I wish that you'd want me now



Don't say goodnight

and walk away without that kiss that you owe me

Don't (don't) close your eyes (your eyes)

and say you don't want me, I wish that you'd want me...

Don't say that you want me, I (wish) know that you want me now
