As soon as the door slammed
The silence that fell
Was all that you left me
With a story to tell
Burnt cigarettes in ashtrays
That I smoked with you
I tried to find the truth
Lying there with you
I never listened
I never listened
And all the things you said
I'll never hear again
I should've listened
Oohh
You said goodnight
Know you really meant goodbye
We just watched it burn
Know we could've kept love alive
I should be lovin' you
I should be lovin' you
Your makeup on my sheets
Your clothes on the floor
The photos that I'll keep
How we were before
Before I took you for granted
Before the memories were torn
I tried to find the truth
Lying there with you
I never listened
I never listened
And all the things you said
I'll never hear again
I should've listened
You said goodnight
Know you really meant goodbye
We just watched it burn
Know we could've kept love alive
I should be lovin' you
I should be lovin' you ooohh
It's time to confess
Of being at my best
But this time I won't get it wrong
It's time to confess
Of being at my best
But this time I won't lead you on
You said goodnight
Know you really meant goodbye
We just watched it burn
Know we could've kept love alive
I should be lovin' you
I should be lovin' you oooohh
