Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
Last word today
You're comin' home to stay?
Wouldn't that be nice for awhile?
[Verse 3]
But now my takeout 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
[Verse 4]
I'm all alone
It's another rainy night without you
Guess I'll leave the light on for you
It's just another rainy night without you
[Verse 5]
Listen, there's a foghorn blowin' from the coast tonight
Remember makin' love in the rain?
Strange how laughter looks like cryin' with no sound
Raindrops taste like tears without the pain
[Verse 6]
I'm not much without you
Can't leave if I wanted to
Maybe that's why you, you stay around
[Verse 7]
But tonight I'll sit here tending the fire
And pace the floor one hundred times in an hour
And check the voicemail for a message you called
(You have no new messages in your mailbox)
[Verse 8]
I'm all alone
It's another rainy night without you
Waiting by the phone, alone
It's another rainy night without you
Guess I'll leave the light on for you
[Verse 9]
I know I said it before
Hate the sound of the closin' door
And your footsteps walking away
[Verse 10]
But now my takeout 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
[Verse 11]
I'm all alone
It's another rainy night without you
Waiting by the phone, alone
It's another rainy night without you
Guess I'll leave the light on for you
It's just another rainy night without you
