Nobody's Home

I could pick a flower just to send you
to see if somehow you could read my mind
the times behind we were befriended
till you unstrung the ties that bind

You're frozen in your ways
yes there is a price to pay
you leave no room for forgiving
it's an empty way of living
you don't see the things you do
hurt the other ones you knew
now you're living life alone
when you call
nobody's home

I could leave my heart out on the table
but I know that you won't give a damn
the way you thought of me has ended
and you're too cold to understand

You're frozen in your ways
yes there is a price to pay
you leave no room for forgiving
it's an empty way of living
you don't see the things you do
hurt the other ones you knew
now you're living life alone
when you call
nobody's home

I could try and I could fail again
but i've been down that road too many times my friend

You're frozen in your ways
yes there is a price to pay
you leave no room for forgiving
it's an empty way of living
you don't see the things you do
hurt the other ones you knew
now you're living life alone
when you call
nobody's home

It's Too Late For Any More

i was thinking of my love
i seem to do that more and more
letting down and letting go
had me heading for the door
the feeling still inside my heart
i wanted something else instead
never dreaming i'd ignored
the one that should be in this bed

and there is nothing i can do now
it's too late for any more
i can wait for something sometime
but there's nothing left in store

i was dreaming of romance
i think i saw it shine and fade
holding on and breaking down
until i finally turned away
sometimes i feel just like a fool
wasting something heaven sent
i must have mumbled something cruel
about how love don't pay the rent

and there is nothing i can do now
it's too late for any more
i can wait for something sometime
but there's nothing left in store
