I Have To

Still wanna be close to you

All that's left to do is laugh

Maybe it's curtains

You left me covered in glass

You were so certain

You didn't want me back

Well then why don't you tell your face that?

I'll dance around the room without you

To all the songs we would listen to

Doesn't mean I can cope without you

Still wanna be close to you

I have to

Am I still under your attack?

Promise I'm learning

To make my peace with the past

I'm so certain

I'm pretending to be fine

Since you asked

I'll dance around the room without you

To all the songs we would listen to

Doesn't mean I can cope without you

Still wanna be close to you

I have to
