*Verse 1:* I wrote your name in coffee stains On paper napkins, windowpanes Collected all your thrown-away smiles Like photographs from better times The way you laugh, the way you turn Made every rational thought just burn But when I found the words to say You looked at me and walked away *Chorus:* And I'm still here, waiting by the door For something that won't come anymore Like autumn leaves that refuse to fall I'm holding on to nothing at all You said you're sorry but you just don't feel The way I feel, the way I feel *Verse 2:* I see you now with someone new His hand in yours, the way I wanted to You're glowing like the morning sun And I'm just shadows, coming undone I told myself I'd be alright That hearts can heal and love takes flight But every street we used to walk Still echoes with our awkward talk *Chorus:* And I'm still here, waiting by the door For something that won't come anymore Like autumn leaves that refuse to fall I'm holding on to nothing at all You said you're sorry but you just don't feel The way I feel, the way I feel *Bridge:* Maybe love's not meant to be returned Maybe some bridges should stay burned Maybe I'm just learning how to let Someone go without regret *Final Chorus:* So I'll close the door, won't wait anymore For something that won't come, I'm sure Like autumn leaves, I'll learn to fall And let go of it, let go of it all You said you're sorry but you just don't feel The way I feel, the way I feel The way I feel... *Outro:* I wrote your name in coffee stains But now the cup is empty again
