Every tick is a little more pain
The bed is cold, the sheets are tight
And I've been pa cing since
The floorboards creep beneath my feet
Every step is a slow defeat
I've walked a thousand miles tonight
The moon is high, the house is still
But my heart won't let me sit still
I'm walking the floor over you tonight
I'm walking the floor over you,
The phone sat silent on the hook
I picked it up, I couldn't look
At the number I still know by heart
The one that tore my world apart
I pulled a drink, I let it sit
Stared at the wall till I couldn't quit
The ice cube melted, the glass stayed full
I never was any good at self -control
But mine are the ones I can't refuse
I'm walking the floor over you tonight
The carpet's warm where I've been before
I'm walking the floor over you,
My neighbor banged on the wall at 3 a .m.
Said, you alright in there?
I said, no sir, but I will be
He said, that ain't an answer
I said, it's the only one
The sun came up like it didn't care
Same old floor, same old view
Still walking the floor over you
Maybe someday I'll find the
Like I did before you walked
But tonight I'm staying for the fight
I'm walking the floor, walking the floor
And I don't know when I'll stop
The carpet's warm where I've been before
I'm walking the floor over you,
I'm walking the floor over you,
