Lyrics
[verse]
(Voice 1) You said goodbye without a warning sign
(Voice 2) I said the words but never meant to leave behind
(Voice 1) Now every heartbeat feels like miles apart
(Voice 2) I'm holding on to pieces of your heart
[chorus]
Tell me why it has to be this way
Tell me why we let it slip away
I need you here, not far away
Baby I want it, want it another way
[verse]
(Voice 1) I dream of streets we used to walk together
(Voice 2) I dream of nights that promised us forever
(Voice 1) But dreams can't hold me when I wake up cold
(Voice 2) So come back home before this story's told
[chorus]
Tell me why it has to be this way
Tell me why we let it slip away
I need you here, not far away
Baby I want it, want it another way
[bridge]
No more distance, no more silent phones
No more nights of sleeping all alone
Just say the word and I'll be on my way
Cause I want it, want it another way
[chorus]
Tell me why it has to be this way
Tell me why we let it slip away
I need you here, not far away
Baby I want it, want it another way
