You're laying right beside me, but you're a million miles away
And if I ask you what's the matter
You don't have much to say
And I can tell that I'm not standing
Where I stood with you before
We can't love like this, anymore

Sometimes it makes me angry, but mostly it just hurts
I thought time might make it better
But it only made it worse
And I can't climb these walls you're building
And I can't unlock the door
We can't love like this anymore

We're coming to a crossroad, I can tell
I'm not sure we'd be this lonely by ourselves
But I won't give up as long as there's a chance
So where we go from here is in your hands

Just say it's over, and at least I'll know for sure
We can't love like this, anymore
We can't love like this, anymore
