[Verse 1] You left your coat by the door Still smells like rain and smoke I keep the ring by the sink Like it might start to glow
Your name on my screen again I stare till the battery dies I say I’m over it, babe But I don’t even try
[Pre-Chorus] I know that look too well You come and go like a spell One touch and I forget Every promise I swore
[Chorus] Don’t leave me in the dark Don’t leave me in the dark I’m falling through your hands I need your heart, I need your heart
Don’t leave me in the dark Don’t leave me in the dark You know I come apart When you say it’s over, over
[Verse 2] Now the glass on the table’s cracked From the way we talked too hard Half of your words were knives Half of mine were scars
I still save those late-night notes Even when I shouldn’t read You said I made you crazy Baby, you made me bleed
[Pre-Chorus] I know that look too well You come and go like a spell One touch and I forget Every promise I swore
[Chorus] Don’t leave me in the dark Don’t leave me in the dark I’m falling through your hands I need your heart, I need your heart
Don’t leave me in the dark Don’t leave me in the dark You know I come apart When you say it’s over, over
[Bridge] If you’re gonna stay, then stay If you’re gonna break, just break I can take the truth, yeah Just don’t make me wait
My hands are tired now From holding what we lost Tell me who I am When you’re the only one I trust
[Final Chorus] Don’t leave me in the dark Don’t leave me in the dark I’m falling through your hands I need your heart, I need your heart
Don’t leave me in the dark Don’t leave me in the dark You know I come apart When you say it’s over, over
Don’t leave me in the dark Don’t leave me in the dark I’m still here where you are (Still here where you are)
