Lyrics:

[English]

We're fallin' faster than we can fly

Forgotten seconds out on Sunset Drive

And I hold on tight

But not enough to hold you back

It feels like the moon is spinnin' off into outer space without you

This room is such a lonely place without you

I wish that we could save today

But I know we can't stay the same

And I keep pushin' you away

Don't wait for me

Home is such a lonely place without you

Home is such a lonely place

I love the lightnin' but hate the rain

Tomorrow's frightenin' but not today

Wish I could slow down time

But not enough to slow you down

I feel like the moon is spinnin' off into outer space without you

The universe, an empty place without you

I wish that we could save today

But I know we can't stay the same

And I keep pushin' you away

Don't wait for me

Home is such a lonely place without you

Home is such a lonely place

We're fallin' faster than we can fly

Forgotten seconds out on Sunset Drive

I wish that we could save today

But I know we can't stay the same

And I keep pushin' you away

Don't wait for me

I wish that we could save today

But I know we can't stay the same

And I keep pushin' you away

Don't wait for me

Home is such a lonely place without you

Home is such a lonely place

Home is such a lonely place...
