How was I supposed to know
That you wouldn't be coming home tonight?
I know you probably got too drunk
And all your friends are making sure you're fine

But when I'm on my own
I have these thoughts that tend to roam
And I get scared
'Cause if I ever lost you baby
Well I don't wanna go there

Don't let me stop you running free
Just save a second thought for me
And if I ever seem overprotective
It's 'cause I don't wanna
Wake up without you
Don't let me stop you running free
Just don't get burned in the heat
I'm sorry if this sounds a little selfish
It's just I don't wanna wake up without you

Said that it would never happen
It happened again
I don't know how many times I've told you now
It hurts me when you do this, Madeline

I put my faith in you 'cause that's what
You're supposed to do when you're in love
But I'll forgive you anyway 'cause
It'd be worse without you

Don't let me stop you running free
Just save a second thought for me
And if I ever seem overprotective
It's 'cause I don't wanna wake up without you
Don't let me stop you running free
Just don't get burned in the heat
I'm sorry if this sounds a little selfish
It's just I don't wanna wake up without you

And now it feels like it's the hundredth time
I guess I'm just getting sick and tired
And though I said that I could never lie
I'll be honest I don't mind

Don't let me stop you running free
Just save a second thought for me
And if I ever seem overprotective
It's 'cause I don't wanna wake up without you
Don't let me stop you running free
Just don't get burned in the heat
I'm sorry if this sounds a little selfish
It's just I don't wanna wake up without you
