Don`t slam the door on your way out.
Don`t leave without saying goodbye,
another long distance night alone,
you leave me wanting, always leave me wanting more.
Last word today, coming home to stay?
Wouldn`t that be nice, for a while?
But now my take-out food is growing cold
and the candle`s burned a hole in the floor
and I`m still waiting for the ring of the phone.
I`m all alone.
And it`s another rainy night without you.
Guess I`ll leave the light on for you.
It`s just another rainy night without you.
Listen, there`s foghorn blowing,
from the coast tonight.
Remember making love in the rain?
Strange how laughter looks like crying with no sound.
Raindrops taste like tears,
without the pain.
I`m not much without you,
can`t leave if I wanted to.
Maybe that`s why you stay around,
but tonight I`ll sit here tending the fire and
pace the floor one hundred times in an hour.
And check the voice-mail for a message you`ve called.
I`m all alone.
And it`s another rainy night without you.
Waiting by the phone, alone.
And it`s another rainy night, without you.
Guess I`ll leave the light on gor you.
I know I`ve said it before.
Hate the sound of the closing door,
and your footsteps walking away.
But now my takeout food is growing cold
and the candle`s burned a hole in the floor.
And I`m still waiting for the ring of the phone.
