You rise up like smoke From the bed of this hotel And I don’t do so well Forgetting you when I’m alone Local TV These walls take pity on me Ice machine and your memory All I hear down the hall
When it’s quiet, I’m quietly sayin’ your name In the silence, you’re silently hidin’ away And I’m gettin’ older, but you never change In a crowd, I could swear I’ve moved on But I’m still no good at forgetting you when I’m alone
You’re the buzz of the fan You’re the hum of the AC I can’t help reminiscing As you’re singing me to sleep
When it’s quiet, I’m quietly sayin’ your name In the silence, you’re silently hidin’ away And I’m gettin’ older, but you never change In a crowd, I could swear I’ve moved on But I’m still no good at forgetting you when I’m alone Ooh
And he doesn’t know He’s just layin’ there sleeping And it’s me and my demons You risin’ up like smoke
When it’s quiet, I’m quietly sayin’ your name In the silence, you’re silently hidin’ away And I’m gettin’ older, but you never change In a crowd, I could swear I’ve moved on But I’m still no good at forgetting you when I’m alone
