The city of angels is lonely tonight
Keep myself alive by candlelight
Say she can't love you like I do
Look me in the eyes and say it's true
I ask myself, is this love at all
When I need you most you let me fall
I'm always here at the side of your stage
Let you live your life
Pretend I'm okay
(Don't' you know that this is over)
I'll be okay
I'll hold you close, we'll stay forever


I, I don't understand why you're leaving me
I, I don't understand how without you I can't breathe
Please don't, don't leave me here
Take my hand and plead in tears
I don't understand why you can't take me with you

You can pretend I don't exist,
But you'll see my face everytime you kiss
I hope you hurt and your walls fall down,
When you hear the sound that I'm okay
(Don't you know that this is over)
I'll be okay
You can hold me down, I will stay forever

I, I don't understand, why you're leaving me
I, I don't understand, how without you I can't breathe
Please don't, don't leave me here
Take my hand and plead in tears
I don't understand why you can't take me with you

I watch you leave
Walk away tonight
And I'm letting go for the last time
And through the tears I say goodbye
So breathe in, breathe in, breathe in, breathe out.

I, I don't understand why you're leaving me
And I, I don't understand how without you I can't breathe
Please don't, don't leave me here
Take my hand and plead in tears
I don't understand why you can't take me with you

(I, I) Don't understand why you're leaving me
(I, I don't understand) how without you I can't breathe
Please don't, don't leave me here
take my hand and breathe in deep
I dont understand why how can't take me with you
