๐ Lyrics
It's not the long, flowing dress that you're in
Or the light coming out of your skin
The fragile you protected for so long
Or the mercy in your sense of right or wrong
It's not your hands searching slow in the dark
Or your nails leaving love's watermark
It's not the way you talk me off the roof
Your questions like directions to the truth
It's knowing that this can't go on forever
Likely one of us will have to spend some days alone
Maybe we'll get forty years together
And one day I'll be gone
And one day you'll be gone
If we were vampires and death was a joke
We'd go out on the sidewalk and smoke
And laugh at all the lovers and their plans
I wouldn't feel the need to hold your hand
Maybe time running out is a gift
And I'll work hard till the end of my shift
And give you every second I can find
And hope it isn't me whose left behind
It's knowing that this can't go on forever
And likely one of us will have to spend some days alone
Maybe we'll get forty years together
And one day I'll be gone
And one day you'll be gone
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
It's knowing that this can't go on forever
And likely one of us will have to spend some days alone
Maybe we'll get forty years together
And one day I'll be gone
And one day you'll be gone
Or the light coming out of your skin
The fragile you protected for so long
Or the mercy in your sense of right or wrong
It's not your hands searching slow in the dark
Or your nails leaving love's watermark
It's not the way you talk me off the roof
Your questions like directions to the truth
It's knowing that this can't go on forever
Likely one of us will have to spend some days alone
Maybe we'll get forty years together
And one day I'll be gone
And one day you'll be gone
If we were vampires and death was a joke
We'd go out on the sidewalk and smoke
And laugh at all the lovers and their plans
I wouldn't feel the need to hold your hand
Maybe time running out is a gift
And I'll work hard till the end of my shift
And give you every second I can find
And hope it isn't me whose left behind
It's knowing that this can't go on forever
And likely one of us will have to spend some days alone
Maybe we'll get forty years together
And one day I'll be gone
And one day you'll be gone
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
It's knowing that this can't go on forever
And likely one of us will have to spend some days alone
Maybe we'll get forty years together
And one day I'll be gone
And one day you'll be gone
