Queensrÿche
The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
Don't slam the door on your way out Don't leave without saying goodbye Another long distance night alone You leave me wanting, always leave me wanting more Last word today, coming home to stay? Wouldn't that be nice, for awhile? But now my take-out food is growing cold And the candle's burned a hole in the floor And I'm still waiting for the ring of the phone I'm all alone And it's another rainy night, without you Guess I'll leave the light on for you It's just another rainy night without you Listen, there's a foghorn blowing from the coast tonight Remember making love in the rain? Strange how laughter looks like crying with no sound Raindrops taste like tears, without the pain I'm not much without you, can't leave if I wanted to Maybe that's why you stay around But tonight I'll sit here tending the fire And pace the floor one hundred times in an hour And check the voice-mail for a message you've called I'm all alone It's just another rainy night, without you Waiting by the phone alone It's just another rainy night, without you Guess I'll leave a light on for you I know I've said it before Hate the sound of the closing door And your footsteps walking away But now my take-out food is growing cold, And the candle's burned a hole in the floor And I'm still waiting for the ring of the phone I'm all alone It's just another rainy night, without you Waiting by the phone alone And it's another rainy night, without you Guess I'll leave a light on for you It's just another rainy night, it's just another rainy night, It's just another rainy night without you
