My head was slower than my tongue
I was losing words I knew were wrong
I was breaking every rule I know
In the hope that you wouldn't go
I was saying all that I could say
Just to try to make you stay
I could feel a cold in the autumn air
But the warmth in your smile just held me there
And as the situation rolled I was unprepared
'Cause the moment was the only one that we might share
So I told you don't go home now
Oh I told you don't go home now
I watch you muddy all of the water
See out the plans that you knew we should alter
To see you breaking down the walls you know
Breaking down the walls you know
Over something that you can't let go
Is harder than I think you know
I could feel a cold in the autumn air
But the warmth in your smile just held me there
And as the situation rolled I was unprepared
'Cause the moment was the only one that we might share
So I told you don't go home now
Oh I told you don't go home now
Yes it was I who
But you knew
I'd try to
'Cause it was all that I could do not to
And you were there to
And I knew
Yes it was I who
But you knew
I'd try to
'Cause it was all that I could do not to
And you were there to
And I knew
If we're honest we both knew...
That we could feel a cold in the autumn air
But the warmth in our smiles held us there
And as the situation rolled we were unprepared
'Cause the moment was the only one that we might share
So you told me don't go home now
While I pleaded don't go home now
I still wish we were alone now
