the lovers that never were

i have always needed somebody girl

but i close the doors to keep out the world. but for you

i would be here all alone

locked in a photograph. all of the clocks have run down. lover beware. we'll be the lovers that never were. i hang patiently on every word you send. will we ever be much more than just friends?

as for you

you sit there playing this game

you keep me waiting

when all of the clocks have run down

all over the world. we'll be the lovers that never were. for as long as the sun shines in somebody's eyes

i believe in you baby

so don't tell me lies. for as long as the trees throw down blossoms and leaves

i know there will be a parade of unpainted dreams. and i know dear

how much it's going to hurt

if you still refuse to get your hands dirty. so you

you must tell me something

i love you

say goodbye or anything. all of the clocks have run down. time's at an end. if we can't be lovers we'll never be friends. for as long as the sun shines in somebody's eyes

i believe in you baby

so don't tell me lies. for as long as the trees throw down blossoms and leaves

i know there will be a parade of unpainted dreams.
