Pull Me In

Give me one hour alone in this dark room without you,

   before I have to get clothes on,

    and float around town 

      pretending to be fine.


What's the line that will bring us back together?


What's a line that we haven't already crossed?


Are there any words that you can hear that would bring you here?


I just need one more hour alone in this dark room without you,

   and then I can go do one more day.


We made a mistake . . .

the pain should fade away,

someday.

The pain should fade away,

someday,

but not today.


What's a line that could take me back in time to when I was bathed in your light?


Is there a line out there that will bring you here?


Are there any words that can save us?


Is there a song we haven't heard yet that'll speak to you when you're afraid? 


Give me one more night with you

    and then I'll be alright . . .

If I had 24 hours left to live,

    I'd want to spend every second of it 

     on your lips.

   

  Wrap your legs around me one last time.

      Say my name—

     say you love me tonight, 

       and I bet I'll be alright . . .


Wrap your legs around me.

    Pull me in.

    Say my name—

    say you love me tonight,

     And I bet,

     Someday, 

        I'll be alright . . .
