short and sweet

there are miles between us

time between us

there is something between us

i may be a fool to dream of you

but

god

it feels so good to dream at all

something short and sweet

there's always a light over my head for you

i am waiting

i am waiting

time will always try to kill me

there are mountains between us

there is time between us

oh

ain't there something between us?

something short and sweet

i don't care if i should

do you wanna hurt me?

'cause i've been hurtin' all alone

it didn't kill me

no

but it wasn't no fun

come and get you some

just the beginning

i only want the beginning

we'll give each other all of our best

and then

time can do what it wants with it

there are mountains between us

there is time between us

oh

ain't there something between us?

something short and sweet

so

why can't i wait?

why can't i wait?

why can't i think?

why can't i wake without you always appearing?

oh

i better not wait too long

'cause time is gonna kill it

time is gonna kill it

time is gonna kill it

time is gonna kill it
