We're falling faster than we can fly Forgotten seconds out on Sunset Drive And I hold on tight But not enough to hold you back It feels like the moon Is spinning off into outer space without you This room is such a lonely place without you I wish that we could save today But I know we can't stay the same And I keep pushing you away Don't wait for me Don't wait for me Home is such a lonely place without you Home is such a lonely place I love the lightning but hate the rain Tomorrow's frightening but not today Wish I could slow down time But not enough to slow you down I feel like the moon Is spinning off into outer space without you The universe an empty place without you I wish that we could save today But I know we can't stay the same And I keep pushing you away Don't wait for me Don't wait for me Home is such a lonely place without you Home is such a lonely place We're falling faster than we can fly Forgotten seconds out on Sunset Drive I wish that we could save today But I know we can't stay the same And I keep pushing you away Don't wait for me Don't wait for me I wish that we could save today But I know we can't stay the same And I keep pushing you away Don't wait for me Don't wait for me Home is such a lonely place without you Home is such a lonely place Home is such a lonely place
