Ain't it sad when you miss a closing door

Turn around, have to wait for something more

Dum dada dada dadum...

Gets me mad that I left it all too late

Swept in the breeze, now I watch it drift away

Dum dada dada dadum...

So you can find me

The tallest building in the tallest city

And I will build a ladder to the rooftops

I'm screaming from my lungs, "I'm sorry, I messed up".

So darling won't you stay here?

I promise I can change

And darling if you stay here

It won't be a mistake

I know every conversation, it always ends the same

So darling if you stay here

I'll find the words I couldn't say

Oh, but only if you stay.

Truth be told, I'm a mess when you're away

And I'm afraid you make me pay for my mistakes

Dum dada dada dadum...

So you can find me

The tallest building in the tallest city

And I will build a ladder to the rooftops

I'm screaming from my lungs, "I'm sorry, I messed up".

So darling won't you stay here?

I promise I can change

And darling if you stay here

It won't be a mistake

And we can hide under the duvet

And time will have to wait

And you can wear my favorite t-shirt

And we can waste away the days

But only if you stay.

Cutting ties and moments just fade away (only if you stay)

Just miles forever we might fade away (only if you stay here)

Still, hope to live for another day (oh baby please just stay here)

But I'll stay asking for you to stay (I'm asking you to stay)

Cutting ties and moments just fade away (I'm asking you to stay)

Just miles forever we might fade away (oh and darling won't you stay?)

Still, hope to live for another day (and tell me that you'll stay)

But I'll stay asking for you to stay.

So darling won't you stay here?

I'm asking you to wait

And darling if you stay here

I promise I can change.
