Some things you do go unnoticed
Never say a word but you just carry on
Sometimes you're hurting, but I'm not listening
When I should be the one that you rely upon
And it will take more than tonight
But I'd love to say it right, ‘cause I know
Baby I'm a fool for always taking
Made me realise the mess I'm making
Gonna be the one whose heart is breaking too
Now my time is running out - too late for talking
I'd do anything to stop you walking
You don't have to wait but baby I'm a fool
But boy, if you're gone - please leave the light on
Things I promised, birthdays I missed
So many wasted opportunities
Times that you tried, crying inside
To open up the door and just get through to me
And it will take more than tonight
But I'd love to say it right, ‘cause I know
Baby I'm a fool for always taking
Made me realise the mess I'm making
Gonna be the one whose heart is breaking too
Now my time is running out - too late for talking
I'd do anything to stop you walking
You don't have to wait but baby I'm a fool
But boy, if you're gone - please leave the light on
I know, there's no point denying, it's a mountain I'm climbing
And I pray, you're gonna give me one more chance to make it right and stay
‘Cause I know
Baby I'm a fool for always taking
Made me realise the mess I'm making
Gonna be the one whose heart is breaking too
Now my time is running out - too late for talking
I'd do anything to stop you walking
You don't have to wait but baby I'm a fool
But boy, if you're gone - please leave the light on
