I Tell Myself
The first time I remember
The last time you let me down
But my arms stay open late
Cause the night brings sounds of silence
Loneliness won't let me sleep
I need to take control
Of this old heart before it breaks
While my arms stay open late
Just because you think love's forever
When it's new, you just believe
It's gonna be that way
Assuming you have found the one to count on
Then he'll leave and tear your world apart
Watching him walk away
But my arms stay open late
Cause the night brings sounds of silence
Loneliness won't let me sleep
I need to take control
Of this old heart before it breaks
While my arms stay open late
While my arms stay open late
While my arms stay open late
