Back At Your Door

Song byMaroon 5

in AlbumIt Won't Be Soon Before Long

From the moment the lights went off

Everything had changed

Lie awake in an empty room

In my head it all feels the same

Like the taste of the day you left

That still lingers on my breath

And the dampness of tears that left

A stain where you had wept

All alone with the negligee

That still hangs off of my bed

I keep meaning to give it away

But I just leave it there instead

No need to cry about it

I cannot live without it

Every time I wind up back at your door

Why do you do this to me?

You penetrate right through me

Every time I wind up back at your door

3 more days 'til I see your face

I’m afraid it’s far too much

Cook a meal and fix up the place

Dial your number, hang it up

If I took you for granted

I apologize for acting tough

You’re my reason for living

And there’s no way I’m giving up, oh

Don’t need to cry about it

I cannot live without it

Every time I wind up back at your door

Why do you do this to me?

You penetrate right through me

Every time I wind up back at your door

Now every evening is a bitter fight

And I’m eating home alone on a Friday night

I know what your friends say

“You’re just wasting your love and time”

I will never let you change your mind

No need to cry about it

I cannot live without it

Every time I wind up back at your door

Why do you do this to me?

You penetrate right through me

Every time I wind up back at your door

No need to cry about it

I may just die without it

Every time I wind up back at your door

Why do you do this to me?

You penetrate right through me

Every time I wind up back at your door
