I don't know why

I can't say no

I guess I should

But I can't let go

Anyday I'll be all right

But not tonight

But come away from the window and close the blind

And sleep on the couch when the bed's too wide

Who said you could keep this heart of mine

This long

This long

So long

There's a quiet in this room

The TV don't fill

And I know I'll be better soon

But come away from the window and close the blind

And sleep on the couch when the bed's too wide

Who said you could keep this heart of mine

This long

This long

So long

And there's a bitter taste in my mouth

That's salt and spice and sweet

With one last sigh the leaves let go

And fall down to the street

Not much to say so I won't call

Don't even want to try

And I'll make some sense of it all

But come away from the window and close the blind

And sleep on the couch when the bed's too wide

Who said you could keep this heart of mine

This long

So long
