Your bitter goodbye is ringing through this quiet night,
                              
This idle hour just wont pass
                                                     
I've never missed you this much, never thought I would,
                                      
Didn't think you'd feel this far away
                                    
Your summer perfume is still blowing through this hallway,
                                 
Autumn's amber red shadows dance
                                  
I miss our midnight rides on highway 18, 18 is gone

Chorus.
                                      
So go past the lights and all the excuses
                                     
You could have left "sincerely yours"
                                
Don't you think it's obvious that I want to say more?
                           
Cause anything too daring to say to you,


             
       Will be said in this letter, then burn it away

So you never realize, I'm here

I'm thinking of your vague reply
    
So I can understand

Why we put this at rest
 
Why we forget to

Say that we were leaving

Say that I was sorry

The past remains unspoken
        
As this vacant night is dieing
                                 
But I still miss your summer perfume
                                         
This cold air brings such a distance to us


          
Such a painful distance
 
I'm still waiting for you to say you hate me now
           
So I don't have to hold on to this burning heart

                                            
This burning heart is getting old, is getting old
                                       
While sitting on this cold kitchen floor,

Head down to hide the tears,

I've realized. I’ve finally realized that you were never,

You were never meant for me
