The cards are on the table
I gave you all I got
I thought that we'd be able
To get out before the flood
 
Nobody can tell me
Where everything went wrong
So please somebody help me
Help me sing my song
 
Ooh
When I close my eyes, and count to five, you're gone
 
I can't come home now to save you from the fire
I can't come home to tell you everything's alright
Oh I can't come home now to give you sound advice
I can't come home to hold my baby one more time
 
We were driving out to my parent's house last week
I saw it in your eyes and in the way you didn't speak
 
Oh even your goodbye was perfect
You left me loving you
And now I'll never want to hurt you, but I wish I wanted to
 
Ooh
When I close my eyes, you come to life
and I reach
 
I can't come home now to save you from the fire
I can't come home to tell you everything's alright
Oh I can't come home now to give you sound advice
I can't come home to hold my baby one more time
 
Ooh
Ooh
 
I can't come home now to save you from the fire
I can't come home to tell you everything's alright
I can't come home now to give you sound advice
I can't come home to hold my baby one more time
 
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
