You don't know how close you came   You know, I think of you as mine   But what we had, you'll have again   And don't think that I won't mind      I waited at the airport gate   Till your plane began to move   Then I couldn't stand it anymore   So I walked away from you   That's when I walked away from you      And if you believe I'm gaining a friend   You'll believe anything   All I'm doing is losing   All I'm doing is losing      I loved being held on that corner   I miss the dream from which I've awoken   You made me feel both lost and home   Now all I feel is broken      All the places we hid love   All the places we let it flourish   All the rubbish that I spoke   Hoping you wouldn't notice   Hoping you wouldn't notice      And if you believe I'm gaining a friend   You'll believe anything   All I'm doing is losing   All I'm doing is losing      When you called me from New York   You sounded so far away   Wasn't distance put to good use   Like when we looked over L.A.?      At least I've had such moments   Being held to the sound of waves   Stars appearing over the ocean   But you were always slipping away   You were always slipping away      And if you believe I'm gaining a friend   You'll believe anything   All I'm doing is losing   All I'm doing is losing
