I bet this time of night you're still up

I bet you're tired from a long hard week

I bet you're sitting in your chair by the window

Looking out at the city

And I bet sometimes you wonder about me.

And I just want to tell you

It takes everything in me not to call you

And I wish I could run to you

And I hope you know that every time I don't

I almost do

I almost do.

I bet you think I either moved on or hate you

Cuz each time you reach out there's no reply

I bet it never ever occurred to you that I can't say hello to you

And risk another goodbye.

And I just want to tell you

It takes everything in me not to call you

And I wish I could run to you

And I hope you know that every time I don't

I almost do

I almost do.

Oh we made quite a mess babe

It's probably better off this way

And I confess babe

In my dreams you're touching my face

And asking me if I want to try again with you

And I almost do.

And I just want to tell you

It takes everything in me not to call you

And I wish I could run to you

And I hope you know that every time I don't

I almost do

I almost do.

I bet this time of night you're still up

I bet you're tired from a long hard week

I bet you're sitting in your chair by the window looking out at the city

And I hope sometimes you wonder about me.
