I went downtown out to a show
Picked out a boy who looked just like you
I took him home to see if I could tell the difference
The cats all knew, the dog did too
In every room we sat I felt the ghost of you
Come down and peek around the bend
"Pathetic acts like this," you said
"Are why I left you in the end"
You turned around and crawled back underneath my bed
Well, I guess it's just like 'Vertigo'
I made him try on all your clothes
How did I hurt you, I don't know
How could I ever hurt you
I don't know
Ooooooo My heart's an open book
Ooooooo and everybody looks
Why can't you see
This guilt is killing me
My love don't go!
I'm weaker than you know
I'll shout it out
I just can't live without
I'll wish you this
Enjoy your next first kiss
I-I can't breathe
Please don't leave
I-I can't breathe
Please don't leave
I-I can't breathe
I can't
Ooooooo I cannot share my heart
Ooooooo Unless it's torn apart
My eyes won't see
This new reality
How can it be
You're not here next to me
Babe come back home
Don't leave me all alone
I-I can't breathe
Please don't leave
I-I can't breathe
Please don't leave
I-I can't breathe
I can't
