I put a box of tissues by my bed
Cause I knew that I'd be up forever
Waiting for, you

I left the light on in the hall
Cause I knew that you'd be fallin'
When you finally come home
And anybody with a heart
Would've been alone
But you brought her
And anybody with a brain
Would've left you then
But I stayed, I stayed

I gathered all the photographs
In the hope of takin' one long
Steamy bath alone
All the water on my skin
Could not wash away the years of
Tryin' to get in

Even though my love life was
Fast asleep and my heart was
Breakin' to a million pieces, I stayed
I stayed awake, I stayed awake
Even though my love life was
Fast asleep and my heart was
Breakin' to a million pieces
