six times two.

In the heat of the fight, I walked away. Ignoring the words that you were saying, trying to make me stay. I said, "this time I've had enough. " And you've called a hundred times, but I'm not picking up; cause I'm so mad, I might tell you that it's over. But if you look a little closer,
I said, "leave," but all I really want is you, to stand outside my window, throwing pebbles; screaming, "I'm in love with you." Wait there in the pouring rain, come back for more. And don't you leave, cause I know all I'll ever need is on the other side of the door. 
Me and my stupid pride, sitting here, alone. Going through the photographs, staring at the phone. I keep going back over the things we both said. And I remember the slammin' door, and all the things that I misread. Baby you know everything, tell me why you couldn't see that when I left, I wanted you to chase after me. 
I said, "leave," but all I really want is you, to stand outside my window, throwing pebbles; screaming, "I'm in love with you." Wait there in the pouring rain, come back for more. And don't you leave, cause I know all I'll ever need is on the other side of the door. 
And I scream out my window, "I can't even look at you, I don't need you," but I do, I do, I do. See, there's nothing you can say to make it right again, I mean it, I mean it. What I mean is, 
I said, "leave," but all I really want is you, to stand outside my window, throwing pebbles; screaming, "I'm in love with you." Wait there in the pouring rain, come back for more. And don't you leave, cause I know all I'll ever need is on the other side of the door. 
With your face and your beautiful eyes, and the conversation with the little white lies. And the faded picture of a beautiful night; you carry me from your car up the stairs. And I'm broke-down crying, wish we weren't this messed, and everything in that little black dress. After everything, I must confess, I need you.
