  • I close the door
    Like so many times, so many times before
    Filmed like a scene on the cutting room floor
    I wanna let you walk away tonight without a word

    I try to sleep, yeah
    But the clock is stuck on thoughts of you and me
    A thousand more regrets unraveling
    Oh, if you were here right now,
    I swear I'd tell you this

    Baby I don't wanna waste another day
    Keepin it inside, it's killing me
    'Cause all I ever wanted comes right down to you, to you
    I wish that I could find the words to say
    Baby I would tell you, every time you leave
    I'm inconsolable

    I climb the walls, yeah
    I can see the edge,
    But I can't take the fall, no
    I've memorized the number
    So why can't I make the call
    Maybe 'cause I know you'll always be with me
    In the possibility

    Baby I don't wanna waste another day
    Keepin it inside, it's killing me
    'Cause all I ever wanted comes right down to you, to you
    I wish that I could find the words to say
    Baby I would tell you, every time you leave
    I'm inconsolable

    No, no, no

    I don't wanna be like this
    I just wanna let you know
    That everything I hold in
    Is everything I can't let go (oh, can't let go)

    'Cause

    Baby I don't wanna waste another day
    Keepin it inside, it's killing me
    'Cause all I ever wanted comes right down to you, to you
    I wish that I could find the words to say
    Baby I would tell you, every time you leave
    I'm inconsolable

    Don't you know it baby
    I don't wanna waste another day
    I wish that I could find the words to say
    Baby I would tell you, every time you leave
    I'm inconsolable

    Yeah, yeah, yeah
    Oh, I'm inconsolable
    Whoa yeah
    I'm inconsolable Writer/s: EMANUEL KIRIAKOU, JESS CLAYTON CATES, LINDY ROBBINS

  • Zhivko from BurgasWithout knowing the taste of lemons, you wouldn't know how sweet tastes. This is why you need to enjoy both. The real measure of being alive.
  • Laurentiu from Bucharest, Romaniai have been a desperate fan of BSB for more than 3 months now and i recently tried some songs dating from 2007 and 2009 among which i found inconsolable. it so much describes me right now...shame that life gives us lemons sometimes
