In my car...five days and counting, here you are
The phone rings, what more could you say
I know you won't ever admit that you fell for him,
He never loved you back.
Isn't it wonderful,
So predictable,
I told you so...

Stay awake,
I'm here now don't say sorry.

Not picking up because he knows your calling,
He's holding back because he knows your falling.
Your night and day and that's why he's stalling,
But one day (one day), he'll be sorry.

I hope that you never relive that,
Something tells me drama always gives you a hand.
It's just a matter of passing time,
After time, after time.

Stay awake tonight,
Forget about your last goodbyes and you'll be sorries.
Stay awake tonight,
Forget about your last goodbyes now don't say sorry. (say sorry)

Stay awake,
I'm here now don't say sorry.
Stay awake,
I'm here, why don't you tell me is it worth it,
To close your eyes and live a dream.
Tell me was it perfect,
Was it really everything, you never thought someone could be?

Stay awake tonight,
Forget about your last goodbyes and you'll be sorries.
Stay awake,
I'm here now don't say sorry.
Stay awake,
I'm here why dont you stay awake tonight?
Try to forget about your last goodbyes and you'll be sorries.
Stay awake tonight,
Try to forget abour your last goodbyes now don't say sorry.

    I can see where you're coming from dan632, but, then again, that guy has such a unique voice, maybe not. I love his "do do do do"s on 'Foreign Language'.

    Maybe it's just me, but I think that the third 'paragraph' on here should be:::: "not picking up cause he knows you're calling he's holding back cause he knows you're falling you're night and day and that's why he's stalling but one day he'll be sorry" But anyway. GREAT SONG. Props to the one who posted the lyrics. The third and fourth 'paragraphs' are ever-so-meaningful to me. Spitalfield = greatness. \m/ keep rockin it, kiddos.

    A few days ago I found out my friend was pregnant at only 14. For some reason, this song just explains it, becuase her boyfriend was an ass..

    spitalfield is the best band ever. And what makes them greater is that everyone in the band is so sweet, especially Mark rose, the lead singer.

    I think this song is about a girl who left her boyfriend for another guy. Now the new guy is treating her like crap, and her ex is saying that he told her so (i know you wont ever admit that you fell for him... i told you so) Then I'm not sure but he might have taken her back (I'm here now, don't say sorry) but told her that if she does it again, he's leaving for good (forget about your last goodbyes and you'll be sorry)

    I always thought it was more like it's her best friend telling her that he's not worth shit. But still... a pretty meaningful song. =)
