lyrics

After you left me
I didn't know what to do.
I was feeling so empty,
So hollow and black and blue.

I was asking forgiveness
From everyone but myself.
Now I'm looking for redemption
For what it's done to my health

Ooh baby, I never wanted to end.
Ooh babe, can we still pretend?

And maybe this comfort
Is making me blind.
When darkness comes over
I don't even mind.

Ooh babe, can this really be the end?
Ooh babe, can we start over again?

You can cry every night babe,
You can howl at the moon.
The love that was inside
has left me much too soon.

Ooh babe, can I see you again?
I want a lover but I need a friend.
