I just wanted everything to be perfect
But you would call me slightly O.C.D.
You know that there's a right time, a right place
Everything in order, a logic and a system to everything
Tear it into pieces, go on tear it into pieces
There were nights when things you do would scare me
Your behavior somewhat O.T.T.
You know that now I have to question
Why I couldn't leave it well alone
You were going that way, while I was going this way
But we left that situation
Should have left when you said
You don't live here no more
You're just hanging around
I stayed a little late tonight
I stayed a little late tonight
Well aware that you know
That we'd been here before
And you're pulling me down
I stayed a little late tonight
I stayed a little late tonight
I guess it must be something in my make up
I could be my own worst enemy
This ain't a two-way conversation
Why I couldn't listen long ago
Thought I could handle your rejection
Stand up on my own but I'm walking on a tight rope
Should have left when you said
You don't live here no more,
You're just hanging around
I stayed a little late tonight
I stayed a little late tonight
Well aware that you know
That we'd been here before
And you're pulling me down
I stayed a little late tonight
tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight
