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

OOoh, if you were here right now,

I swear I'd tell you this

[Chorus:]

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'ma 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

[Chorus]

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 (oooh, can't let go)

Cause Baby,

[Chorus]

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'ma tell you, every time you leave

I'm inconsolable

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Oooh, I'm inconsolable

Whoaa yeah

I'm inconsolable

Jay walked into his hotel room, angry at himself, angry at the Sara, angry at the world. How could he do his job as a singer, be the proper husband he should be, raise two teenage kids the way they were supposed to, and bring a baby into the mix? Thoughts wracked his brain till he felt a headache come over him. Without unpacking, he sprawled out on his bed and shut his eyes to the madness that consumed him.

Butterflies; that's what Tom was feeling. Every time Kels would look at him he felt himself smile and blush. How could he have gotten such a perfect girl and a perfect family? Their skype date was going so well, but he knew he should say goodnight so she and the kids could go to bed. Time zones are a bitch!

"I love you Tom. Can't wait till you're home."

Tom grinned ear to ear. "Babe, I-I know we've been dating for, shit, ages…and you've put up with me through it all."
