I was walking, with your left hand in my back pocket,
and I stared at the sky, while you kissed me.
and you were running away, away from everything.
and I stayed behind, so you'd miss me.
And while these words will sound so sweet.
I could care less about you, care less about you,
and I love the sound of you walking away.
and I can, see clearer, and I'm getting closer
to finding out just who I am without you in the way.
So hold me...... but only..... for today.
Despite my best ambition, I get into the worse situations
but here I am, a crystal clean,
and on the nights so lonely, the words I say to you are phony,
because there's nothing left to say.
and though you say you can't live without me
and every single night you think about me.
I could care less about you, care less about you,
and I love the sound of you walking away.
and I can, see clearer, and I'm getting closer
to finding out just who I am without you in the way.
So hold me...... but only..... for today.
