Silhouette

so quiet after all the snow falls
you turn all the lights off
i can see your silhouette smiling back
and i know i don't really know you
i don't quite deserve you
i can see your silhouette turn its back on me

i just want to be the one you say goodnight to
and don't you think that i have a right to tell you
all the things that i need to say to you,
and i can't stand to see the way you gaze right at me
every time you stare right past me
cast another doubt i'm holding inside
if you only knew that

all my life
i've been waiting in line
making it by
it's all right
and all this time
you've been saying it's fine
telling everyone you know 'bout me
i can't take all of these
thorns in my side
letting it slide
i don't know why
in all this time
you can't decide, decide
you can't make up your mind about me

i can't keep standing here
you blow my mind and then you disappear
you think it's all just one and the same
you know that
i can't stand to be the one you kiss goodnight with
i'm only gonna miss the nights you're with another guy
i'm sleeping alone, you're right by his side

i know you've been giving it time
take it in stride
it's all right
and all this time
you've been saying it's fine
telling everyone you know bout him
i can't take all of these
thorns in my side
letting it slide
i don't know why
in all this time
you can't decide, decide,
you can't make up your mind about me

i couldn't trust the way you looked at me
i couldn't stand there and just let things be
i didn't love you enough to set you free
another time i might have let things go
another time i might have let you know
i never thought i'd see you coming back to me

so quiet after all the snow falls
you turn all the lights off
i can see your silhouette smiling back
and i know i don't really know you
i don't quite deserve you
i can see your silhouette turning back
and sometimes you can be the dark night
girl, i'll be the moonlight
i will be the one who shines, the one who shines
and i know i don't quite deserve you
girl, you know i'll earn you
i can see your silhouette coming back to me
