Berikut lirik lengkapnya:
i can't be no use to you
if i can't be good for myself
i can't make it better
for anybody else
maybe it's our light's gone out
turned off in an empty house
nothings gonna change until i do
and i can't be no use to you
if i can't make this on my own
i can't make it better
if i can't face this all alone
and it would be so easy to stay easy
and that's what i fear
id never want to look back
and regret it all by staying here
maybe its our lights gone out
turned off in an empty house
back there's not a place that i can be
on our own - so far from home
from where we've been
i'm scared and yet i'm not alone
i know that you are here with me
inside my heart you'll always be
you're all i've ever known
i'm just afraid of slipping backwards
back there's not a place that i can be
all that i am is slowly turning
baby it's the last thing that i'd ever wanna do
is go ahead and leave you now
maybe it's the moment that you find a way to run
cause baby i can't turn around
maybe it's our light's gone out
turned off in an empty house
back there's not a place that i can be.(far)
