Now I look out my window
To the street so far below
And I pray I'll see you approaching
Don't know why you had to go

It's been so long, but I feel no better
I've gotta say I'm still so alone
Will I ever get used to this feeling
And the nights so long and cold?

When all I want to do is hold you
But all I seem to do is cry
And all you had to say the day you walked away
Is: "Don't wait for me, goodbye"

All my friends, they smile when they see me
I guess they know what I'm going through
They don't mention your name to protect me
Now what am I supposed to do?

When all I want to do is hold you
But all I seem to do is cry
And the last thing that you said
And it's ringing 'round my head
Is: "Don't wait for me, goodbye"

How can I replace you?
How am I gonna get through every night?
All the time I wasted
All the pain I tasted for you
I'm losing my mind

Oh, why do you have to go away?
Leave me like this, darling?
Can't stand it for another day

When all I want to do is hold you
But all I seem to do is cry
And the last thing that you said
And it's ringing 'round my head
Is: "Don't wait for me, goodbye"

Don't wait for me
Don't wait for me, goodbye

I can't stand it no more
Can't stand living, living without you
