The Other Side Of The Door

In the heat of the fight, I walked away

Ignoring words that you were saying,

Tryna make me stay.

I said, "This time I've had enough."

And you've called a hundred times,

But I'm not pickin' up.

'Cause I'm so mad, I might tell you that it's over.

But if you look a little closer



I said, "Leave," but all I really want is you

To stand outside my window, throwing pebbles;

screaming, "I'm in love with you."

Wait there in the pourin' rain,

Come back for more.

And don't you leave,

'Cause I know all I need

is on the other side of the door.



Me and my stupid pride

Sittin' here alone.

Going through the photographs

Staring at the phone.

I keep going back over

The things we both said.

And I remember the slammin' door,

And all the things that I misread.

Baby if you know everything,

Tell me why you couldn't see

That when I left I wanted you to

Chase after me?

Yeah



I said, "Leave," but all I really want is you

To stand outside my window, throwing pebbles;

screaming, "I'm in love with you."

Wait there in the pourin' rain,

Come back for more.

And don't you leave,

'Cause I know all I need

is on the other side of the door.



And I, scream out the window,

"I, can't even look at you, I don't need you,"

But I do, I do, I do

See, there's nothing you can say

To make this right again, I mean it,

I mean it

What I mean is...



I said, "Leave," but baby all I want is you

To stand outside my window, throwing pebbles;

screaming, "I'm in love with you."

Wait there in the pourin' rain,

Come back for more.

And don't you leave,

'Cause I know all I need

is on the other side of the door.



With your face and your beautiful eyes,

And the conversation,

With the little white lies.

And the faded picture

Of a beautiful night

You carry me from your car

up the stairs

And I'm broke-down cryin'

Was she worth this mess,

After everything in that little black dress

After everything, I must confess,

I need you
